No, I've seen this before.  Michael, have you tried "cat /proc/fstab" (or
whatever file in /proc lists all the installed drivers for file systems)?  I
had a similar problem with a Red Hat installation on a laptop.  No matter
what I did, the system would not touch the CD-ROM driver after a kernel
build, and it always looked like iso9660 support wasn't compiled in (even
though I knew it was).

Unfortunately, I never found an answer... someone suggested a bad or
corrupted kernel.  The frustrating thing was that SuSE never had this
problem on the same machine.

BTW, I had to recompile the kernel for this machine in order to turn on APM
support.

Mark
