System is running 4.X stable. No hard disk is configured and the guest os is either win95 or win98 from floppy. I get the following messages from the vmware log: Feb 21 09:36:37: Forking AIO IDE1:0 pid=4549 sharedArea=0x2b7b3000 size=0x2000 Feb 21 09:36:37: ATAPI_CDROM: cdrom.modeSenseInterval=8 Feb 21 09:37:20: VIDE: (0x170) OUTB Cmd of 0xA1 for non-existent drive 1 Feb 21 09:37:21: F(173):311 0x2fff 2 Feb 21 09:37:21: VIDE: (0x170) ATAPI Unexpected IN len 2 w/o active Cmd The last error repeats many times. The cdrom drive is reported by the kernel as follows: Feb 21 14:07:56 pooh /kernel: atapci0: port 0xd800-0xd80f at device 4.1 on pci0 Feb 21 14:07:56 pooh /kernel: ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0 Feb 21 14:07:56 pooh /kernel: acd0: CDROM at ata1-master using PIO4 The cdrom is configured as follows for vmware: # CD-ROM ide1:0.present = TRUE ide1:0.fileName = "/dev/acd0c" ide1:0.deviceType = atapi-cdrom ide1:0.startConnected = TRUE I have tried using different numbers in place of ide1:0 but with no luck. The cdrom is a master. Does anyone else have any ideas on what I need to do to get vmware2 working with the cdrom?
