Fair enough. Sorry to hear this. I am indeed interested in the driver and I have a Mitsumi FX-004. The only problem is that I have virtually no disk space for compilation and that both machines I have are used in production. The machine with CDROM runs, (well, crawls to be honest) Windows as we need the MS-Office compatibility. I'd love to be able to move the CDROM to the FreeBSD fileserver. > Paul Richards <paul@FreeBSD.org> wrote: > > I'll try and find the problem with my drive this week.

At a later time? I might be able to jump in, but not before 2.1 time. I cannot afford diskspace for -current tree, and cannot move my fileserver to -current either. The Windows machine double boots to FreeBSD, but has a minimum of disk devoted to it. > Terse, I know. Sorry. Not encouraging, I know. Sorry :( /Alby > jdl
