My IDE CDROM is on the first port, slave, and it's /dev/wcd0c One could assume that Wei Weng's CDROM would be on /dev/wcd1c That's useful info about the cdrom only working on the first, slave, or second, master. I had *many* problems during installation of another HD, and eventually I got it working (first-2gig, CDROM, second-540meg) I don't remember reading this before, is this documented more?
