Mitsumi Proprietary CDROM Drive Help Request
Can you install Debian-linux from CDROM using a Mitsumi proprietary
CDROM Drive? (The FX-001D?) Since the mcd device driver isn't
offered in the installation routines, I couldn't figure out a way to
do it. I was able to get Debian installed by copying the CDROM .deb
files to a hard drive, then mounting the partition, but I couldn't get
Debian to find the CDROM drive even after recompiling the kernel. I
have been successful in getting slackware to find the CDROM, and have
installed from the CDROM. Why this doesn't work is baffling, and I
finally broke down and asked.
Thanks for the help.
