Is ide-cd loaded, before your system runs udevstart? modprobe ide-cd makes it work. Thankyou. This is now added to my /etc/modules I did: find /lib/modules* -name 'cd*' before, but now I see why this didn't work. To complete my education, what is it that I no longer have that would have loaded all these modules before? Was it something that loaded the module whgen I access the device node, or was it just something that loaded the modules anyway? Thanks Kay and also Stefan Sam ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
