Very Computer

           My CD-ROM problem is that when I used to work with DOS 6.2, I use to
put its driver in config.sys in order to intialize it,then I use the program
mscdex.exe with some parameters to start it,but this program is not combatible
with Linux ,BTW my kernal version is 1.0.9,I dont know if the newset version
can detect me Panasonic CD-ROM ,if any one has an answer to any of my problems
please Email or post in this groub ,and I'll be thankfull
                                  thanks in advance  

       oh yah,how can I get the newest version of the kernal and compile it
with the right parameters, thanks again

Good luck and enjoy

PS. You might want to check out the directory "/pub/linux/docs" on the
same ftp-site. It probably contains all the information you need.
