fstab problems

Tue, 19 Sep 2000 18:59:54 MST

Thanks Rod, now another question:  Where do I add that?  Is this somthing 
where I have to "make xconfig"?  I want to be able to write CD's without 
going to windows everytime, it's about all I use it for now!

On another note, my new job is requiring everyone in web dev to have a 
dual-boot windows/linux box...  : )

I see you have append="hdc=ide-scsi" which is good.  However you need to
also load the ide-scsi module, i.e. "modprobe ide-scsi".  The drive will
then become something like /dev/scd0, not /dev/hdc.

HTH,
