I may have deleted this email, so please don't spank me. On a whim I decided to go ahead and check out 8.1 Works fine so far except that I can't mount /media/cdrecorder properly and my DVD drive shows up as a SCSI drive. What's going on? Please keep in mind that I have an IDE DVD drive and IDE scsi drive. In the past the DVD drive showed up as a regular CD for the most part. So this doesn't make any sense to me. If I do a cdrecord-scanbus I get the following... scsibus0: 0,0,0 0) 'MT1316 ' 'BDV212B ' '0.36' Removable CD-ROM 0,1,0 1) 'HP ' 'CD-Writer+ 8200a' '1.0g' Removable CD-ROM 0,2,0 2) * 0,3,0 3) * 0,4,0 4) * 0,5,0 5) * 0,6,0 6) * 0,7,0 7) * scsibus1: 1,0,0 100) 'SanDisk ' 'ImageMate II ' '1.30' Removable Disk 1,1,0 101) * 1,2,0 102) * 1,3,0 103) * 1,4,0 104) * 1,5,0 105) * 1,6,0 106) * 1,7,0 107) * I believe that first device on scsibus0 is my DVD drive. I can't think of what else it could be. Any ideas how to fix this? Preston
