Can you post any more details or links to how > to set this up? You can find an outdated version on http://www.zastrow4u.de/ which can boot from a CD. Study how it works. My actually version has *even* the ide-drivers included as kernel modules, which are loaded _after_ vdr is up and running. Setting up such a system is nothing for novice linuxer's. Therefore I can not spend any support, because the whole system is very hardware specific and mistakes often results in poorly booted systems without access to the drive... Alfred
