    I've been tring to follow your responses but I'm not getting
anything out of them. 
    I have a Panasonic-Matsushita CD-ROM drive and the model is a
CR-563-b. It is directly connected to my Sound Blaster Pro. Is this
what your talking about?
    Anyway, when I boot Linux with the sbpcd kernal it searches for
about five minutes but it doesn't find my CD-ROM.
 PLEASE send your "priceless advice" to sponge@primenet.com
