2.6.12 and 2.6.13 won't access cdrom
Kernel versions 2.6.12 and 2.6.13 are causimg serious problems here.
2.6.13 won't access /cdrom and 2.6.12 segfaults when I try this. It is
then impossible to log out normally and I have to pull the plug on the
computer!
I have an older (non-Debian) version of 2.6.12 which does work, for some
reason.
I'd like to revert to 2.6.11 or 2.6.10 but image files for this don't
appear to be available for Debian now.
I tried to compile a vanilla kernel but the compile fails (something to
do with gcc ???).
What to do now? Is there somewhere I can get earlier kernel images to
try?
