BSD2.1 cannot see IDE CDROM Date: 27 Jan 1996 19:56:29 -0500 Organization: America Online, Inc. (1-800-827-6364) Lines: 14 Sender: root@newsbf02.news.aol.com Message-ID: <4eehjt$3og@newsbf02.news.aol.com> Reply-To: pecunious@aol.com (Pecunious) NNTP-Posting-Host: newsbf02.mail.aol.com HELP I recently got BSD 2.1 which has the experimental driver for IDE CDROMs. I have two HDD (Quantum540, WD420) as master and slave attaching to the first onboard IDE controller, and a Toshiba quad-speed IDE cdrom (5302) is hooked up as the secondary master. <--- configuration suggested by the documentation. I tried both the INST_IDE.bat and the boot image ATAPI.???. But when it is time to select the installation medium, BSD cannot find my Toshiba cdrom. Please help. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks. Sonny
