G'day

I know what type of CDROM it is
a matsushita CR-562 2 speed and it is plugged into an IDE "LIKE" interface on a soundblaster 16 sound card
Its old yes I know but it works fine with Redhat 6.0 and is supported by 7.0 according to the Redhat website and the multitudionous HOWTOs around the place
I am fairly sure that it wont plug into the mainboard IDE secondary interface as It is a propietary interface made by Panasonic\soundblaster from about 1994

an interesting feature though is that RedHat 6.0 detects the CDROM despite the fact its connected to a 16-bit ISA soundcard... wish the same was true for the NIC!

thanx for the responses
