Re: Cannot access internal CD-ROM on PB 1400

Hi,

sorry that I write to you so late, but I was very busy the last days.

This is something I know very well. Mostly every SCSI CD-ROM is supoorted but
there is also a hack which helps to run a Mediabay (Extended Bay) CD-ROM. I
got it and could use my CD-ROM but the installer Kernel I got for MKLinux had
not the possibility to open a console for special operations.

This Kernel don't work in any way. He found no CD-ROM and the installer
doesn't run also.
