OK here is the normal stuff
Hardware:
i486dx2 66 20 meg Ram, SB Pro 2, 2xspin cdu-33a
OS: Slackware 3.1 (slackware 96) with 2.x.x kernel.

I have the correct stuff in the lilo header for the CDROM ( I know that
they dont autodetect) and seem to have the correct device installed 
/dev/sonycd.

The CDROM isnt recognised and I havent the time atm to track down the problem.
These used to be a popular drive, anyone still using one and had similar problems?

Cheers
Brett
