I just bought a cheap ATAPI/IDE DVD drive from best buy. It's a Digital Research DRDVD1640. The box didn't say it was missing anything and I checked the box and there wasnt a IDE cable in there. It wasn't suppose to be one cause it didn't come with one. So, I was like thats fine for now I guess. So what I did was put the DVD drive in and took the plugs from my cd-rom drive and pluged them into my dvd. I don't know shit about hardware so maybe I shouldn't have done this. Thats why I'm here. The handbook says I should ln -sf /dev/acd0c /dev/dvd and ln -sf /dev/racd0c /dev/rdvd. Would this apply to me sence I didn't *actually* add the drive I just unpluged one and pluged another in? Some help would be appreciated. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Shopping - with improved product search http://shopping.yahoo.com
