Nicholas,

a) e-mail to your address seems not to work.  b) If the drive is
atapi-compliant (most, but not all, ide drives are) it should work under a
kernel with atapi support compiled in.  Not all kernels which support ide
hard disks also support atapi drives.  I think bare may be a case in
point.  But slackware provide lots of kernels which do support atapi
devices.  Look in the file which lists kernels and their content - 
which.one, I think.
