Hi, I'm tring to get through my first (redhat)linux installation a bit at a
time.  To start with, I got rid of windows and started fresh which of course
would have wiped out all my files.  I'm at the point where I pick my cd-rom
which is a mitsumi, then you have the choice of autoprobe or specify driver
files.  I thought that I wrote down all my computer info there is that I
would need but I don't know what to put for the base IO port and the misc.
options.  It can't find any drivers on my hard drives.  Do I have to install
my cd-rom software/drivers?
Also, on the choice list of cd-roms there was mitsumi alternate-what is
this?
I did figure out that with the plain mitsumi the ext. is mcd whereas the
ext. for the alternate is mcdx.
I appreciate any help.  pecsnif@mindspring.com
