You don't need any of the old-style ide-scsi stuff for modules.conf. The kernel command-line parameter is enough. > I need to be able to mount the rascal now, don't I ? You can still access it as /dev/hdd (which should be linked from /dev/cdrom), as well as /dev/scd0. You can use either one of those three in /etc/fstab. You need not specify the file-system as -t iso9660, as it will be detected automatically. Also, the read-only media will be recognized, and mounted as such, too. --
