Hi, just borrowed an Acer PCMCIA MiniRW 8x8x24. It's an old one, manufactured 2001, model number is 8824MM-002. So I inserted it to the slot, and my notebook was locked. After reboot, I found that /var/log/messages hasn't logged the output. So, I reinserted the card and immediately switch to console 10. Apparently, the system successfully recognize the device as /dev/hde, and the driver is "ide-cs" (plus some other cryptic msgs). Any experience to be shared? Perhaps I need to load ide-scsi? TIA. -- -- Verdi March --

Memories! I used to have the exact same one. I know it works for linux cuz I used to use it. Unfortunately I don't really remember how exactly ;) I would definitely try setting your /dev/hde to be ide-scsi as see where that leads you. Mike
