Post Redhat 9 -- Dell Inspiron 3200 Laptop


I have a issue with my cd-rom drive mounting and not showing the data on
my CD's .

My inspiron 3200 is a 233mhz with 140mb ram.

the system says that the CDROM drive is mounted but noting appears on the cdrom disk.

This is equipped with modular drives where you have to shutdown and to remove the CD-Rom drive to installed the Floppy drive.

The floppy drive works fine with floppies it just that stupid cdrom drive!!!!


I know the drive works that how I got redhat 9 installed.

oh yeah one more thing everytime I try to eject the CD from the CDROM drive from Linux my laptop locks up!!!


any help would be great!!!!
