What do you mean by that? You mean you have no file called /dev/sr0??? Note that there was a little "buglet" in 8.1, in that for the first time ever, ide-cd was compiled as a module. This means that if you have one ide-scsi device on your system (a cd burner, in other words), all your cd devices will be ide-scsi unless you do something about it. The easiest way to "do something about it" is to edit /etc/sysconfig/kernel and add "ide-cd" to the initrd variable in that file *before* the ide-scsi module, run mk_initrd (and lilo, if you're running lilo. If you're running grub you don't have to do anything other than mk_initrd) and reboot. This is assuming you don't want your regular non-burner cd/dvd as ide-scsi. If you do, then the symlinking the others have talked about should set things straight. Anders
