Hello. I purchased S.u.S.E. Linux 5.2, because I have been told it is the most user friendly Linux version of all. And it just arrived this morning. However, right at the beginning of install, to my dismay, my CD-ROM was not on the list of CD-ROMs to select! They only have three EIDE selections, with the rest all SCSI. What happened to my "sbpcd" option I expected? Of course, when I select any EIDE option, Linux says it can't find my CD-ROM.
With all cdrom/network cards/tape install, you must do a autodetect modules before you install ... soundblaster eide is a module... you can go straigt to it and enter the address and irq, etc... but SuSE should be able to get it with no problem... It's one of the great benifits to SuSE over RH and CALDERA...
I am stuck without knowing what to do about this...and rather disappointed. Is anyone familiar with installing S.u.S.E. 5.2 from CD-ROM? Thanks in advance.
