Redhat 4.0 Installation CD-ROM Problems

Post by Kevin Wi » Tue, 04 Mar 1997 04:00:00



        Ok, I've got a CDU33A, and have always had my cd working under 3.0.3.
I went to install 4.0 off of the Infomagic Dec 96 set, and the boot kernel
won't recognize my cd drive, no matter what I try.  I've booted normally, and
added the appropriate options when it asked (cdu31a=0x340,0), nothing, I've
tried adding the hardware options when it comes to the boot: prompt, and I
can't get it to recognize my cd.  Any ideas, or is this a bad boot image?  CD
installation worked fine for REdhat 3.0.3.

Redhat 4.0 Installation CD-ROM Problems

Red Hat reports:
        "For the Sony CDU31a CDROM, the I/O address argument is cdu31a_port
(not cdu31a), and the IRQ argument is cdu31a_irq."

I'd try the same thing for your cd

1. Redhat Linux 4.0 - CD-ROM problem

I've been trying unsuccessfully to install Linux 4.0 on my
Win95 PC using the Linux CDROM, but it just doesn't seem to
recognize or detect the presence of the SONY CDU33A CD player
that I have interfaced via a SoundBlaster 16 bit card.

Linux tech support has been $&*#! in helping me(well, they got
their $49.95 for a slacware, why care?).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
