I am very new to Linux and am having problems installing Red Hat Linux =
7.0.  The install process asks what type of media contains the packages =
to be installed: local CD-ROM or hard drive.  I selected CD-ROM, and =
then it asks if I have a SCSI CD-ROM, or OTHER.  I selected OTHER as my =
CD-ROM is a Yamaha CRW8824EZ internal E-IDE CD-RW drive.  It then asks =
if I have a driver disk, to which I reply no.  This cycle then repeats.  =


I called Yamaha computer products division, and they confirmed that =
although their products will work on a Linux OS, they do not supply the =
device drivers.

Where can I get a Linux CD-ROM device driver that supports a Yamaha =
CRW8824EZ internal E-IDE CD-RW drive.  Any assistance would be greatly =
appreciated.

Thanks.....................
Don
