I am not familiar with mac hardware, so I don't know if this is an ide or a scsi cdrom, but I do not see any cdrom modules at all listed in build/pkg-lists/cdrom/powerpc. Was this previously perhaps built in, and became modular in the new powerpc kernel? > Detecting hardware... > Loading modules... > Detected module '[Unknown]' for 'Unknown MATSHITACD-RW CW-8121' > Detected modules 'sungem' for 'Apple Computer Inc.

Uninorth GMAC' I don't know why, but the new powerpc kernel does not include a sungem module at all. I had to remove it from the modules list. > then main-menu says ls /lib/modules/*/kernel/drivers/cdrom/ > : No such file or directory > mounting /dev/ on /cdrom failed: No such device. That's probably cdrom-detect being a snot: It tries to come up with a list of ancient i386 cdrom modules and of course there are none on other arches. -- see shy jo
