I noticed that the disknames ::when not being used as RAID are /dev/hda and /dev/hdc... Not sure if this will work, but you could try putting both hd's on the same controller and moving your CDROM to master on the secondary controller. Give it a try...nothing to lose. :) -- Ben Rosenberg ---===---===---===--- mailto:ben@whack.org Tell me what you believe.. I'll tell you what you should see.
