Have you tried switching the cables over to the other connector, i.e. plug the CD/DVD drives into the secondary connector and vice-versa? Of course, you will also have to edit /etc/fstab to reflect the change, i.e. hdc will/should become hda and hdd will be hdb.
Thanks for your reply. I doubt cabling is the problem as this machine has been working for several months. I think I may have a hard disk failure or maybe a rootkit. The boot message shows udev failed to start; dont know what this means the system is realy slow after about ten minute boot randolph jones ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ** -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
