Hi, I was trying to rescue a Red Hat 7.3 laptop using a Red Hat 9 CD#1. Should this be possible? If I try to boot into rescue mode using CD#1 on a PCMCIA CDROM the boot process gets as far as allowing language selection and then asks for the location of the rescue image. If I select CDROM then it fails to find the device. If I try to pass the flag `cdrom=hdc' to the kernel then the boot process shows that it fails to find the CDROM. I note from an earlier email that Arjan van der Ven has a test kernel to fix PCMCIA problems including this CDROM not found problem. Thanks for any suggestions.

I'm assuming that it's disappeared into the aether and I apologize if this ends up being a repeat posting)
