# Adding the following line to /etc/fstab should take care of this:

mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom

Code:

mount: special device /dev/hdc does not exist

ok, i've used the guide from this link:

http://webpages.charter.net/decibelshelp/LinuxHelp_UDEVPrimer.html

and the kernel loads fine. when X tries to come up it hangs. a blank screen appears and that's about it.
