I'm running 2.1.5 on a P5 200 MHz. I have an IDE and I cannot mount an
extended DOS area a floppy drive  or my ATAPI Toshiba  12X CD.  I installed
from a DOS partition and ended up writing a perl strip html's so I can at
least try to wade my way thru the Doc files,  but it is frustrating not
being able to get then to a Web reader.  Someone give me a clue as to what
my drive problems are.
thanks.
Kathy
