Greetings

I've decided to tear my system down and rebuild it correctly.  I'm running
OS/2 WARP IV.  The main idea here was to add networking.  

Anyway I got it working almost as good as before except:  At the moment I must
choose between using my CD or my tape drive.  Obviously I want to have both. 
Before I had both (but not the networking card).  To get the CD I use the
statement:  basedev=ibm1s506.add 
to get the tape I use:  basedev=ibm1s506.add /P: yada yada yada.

I tried to add both statements but got a trap on bootup.  Anyway I'm using
BA/2 pro and the drive is an IDE travan drive (yes the bundle from Indelible
Blue).

Thanks
