Re: Dell Inspiron XPS Gen2 (M170) CDROM not detected



I remade the initrd image, with libata atapi_enabled=1 in /etc/mkinitrd/modules since I couldn't get libata.atapi_enabled=1 to stick in grub.

Thanks!

Did you try to append "libata.atapi_enabled=1" to your boot Parameters this helped with my Dell Inspiron 6000.
