 |
|
Just did a fresh install and the system is not recognizing my cdrom drive. The kernel is 2.6.38-r6, cdrom is not broken. Also, there is no /dev/cdrom or /dev/sr* device listed.

kernel config: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/416232/

You probably need something like the following in your kernel config.
Serial ATA and Parallel ATA drivers --->
[*] ATA SFF support
[*] ATA BMDMA support
<* > VIA PATA support
and exclude the whole
< > ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support (DEPRECATED) |

My kernel was built like that prior to your suggestion with the exception of the VIA PATA support. I enable this in the kernel and rebooted the machine. Still not working. |

| Solution was to build JMICRON_PATA into the kernel. Thanks to TitanofOld on #gentoo for the help. |
