I've just installed the Debian Linux distribution version 0.91 BETA. My machine has a SCSI CD-ROM drive. Devian Linux sets /dev/scd0 as character device, but it shuld be block device. I fixed this problem by typing following commands: # rm /dev/{scd0,scd1} # mknod /dev/scd0 b 11 0 # mknod /dev/scd0 b 11 1 Anyway, thank you for giving us the great package! -- NIIBE Yutaka Mitsubishi Research Institute, Inc.
