I've got a laptop as in the title, running with kernel 2.6.0 and 2.6.1 (grub options to switch between them)
I've also got kernel 2.4.22-8.

The problem is that with 2.4.22-8, the combo drive works with
Code:
mount /mnt/cdrom
and with 2.6.0 and 2.6.1 it doesn't. ATAPI CDROM and generic CDROM is enabled in the kernel config, and I've tried with and without SCSI emulation.
With the emulation compiled in, the drive doesn't appear in fstab at all, although it does appear in /proc as being at hdc, and with the emulation absent, the drive appears at /mnt/cdrom, but attempts to mount give errors that the drive "isn't a valid block device"

Any ideas, because quite frankly I'm stumped?

With the 2.6.* kernel, the ide-scsi emulation is not necessary for cd burners! Now if you want to mount your cd-rom with

Code:
mount /mnt/cdrom


you have to add an entry in /etc/fstab. Else, you should mount it with

Code:
mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom

Could you give us a copy of the output, when you type "dmesg" ?

There should be a paragraph like:

Code:

ICH3M: IDE controller at PCI slot 00:1f.1
ICH3M: chipset revision 2
ICH3M: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
    ide0: BM-DMA at 0xbfa0-0xbfa7, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:DMA
    ide1: BM-DMA at 0xbfa8-0xbfaf, BIOS settings: hdc:pio, hdd:pio
hda: IC25N080ATMR04-0, ATA DISK drive
hdb: MATSHITADVD-RAM UJ-810, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
blk: queue c030ed00, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff)
ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14
hda: attached ide-disk driver.
hda: host protected area => 1
hda: 156301488 sectors (80026 MB) w/7884KiB Cache, CHS=9729/255/63, UDMA(100)


In my case hdb is the cdrom drive.

[/code]

Ok, then hdc should be your CD-Rom drive and you could use /dev/hdc to mount it.

Is it possible that you compiled the CDROM support as modules, and haven't loaded the modules yet?

No it's compiled into the kernel

Except I get errors, saying that /dev/hdc isn't a valid block device.
