Description Fredrik Jonsson 2005-02-24 12:16:58 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET 
CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

Description of problem:
Installing Fedora 3 or RedHat Enterprise AS 4 works fine from all 4 
CD's.
After installation when login there is no CD/DVD. And I can not mount 
it!

CD/DVD - hdc.
hda, hdb, hdd - Hard Drives

I have no CD/DVD/hcd in dmesg. So it seems like the CD/DVD is not 
detected at boot by the system.

I have a LG DVD-RW with dubbel capacity.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
udev-039-10.FC3.1.i386.rpm

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in
2. Put in a CD (any)
3. Try mount (mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom) or look in the filemanager, 
nothing.
    

Actual Results:  /dev/hdc does not exist

Comment 3 Fredrik Jonsson 2005-02-26 08:46:21 UTC
Hi
Solved! Yesterday I mixed around my HW (DVD and HDD) and managed BIOS
to find the DVD as second slave. Then it works!

Aparently the DVD can not be on hdc if a HDD is on hdd.
The HDD on hdd is on size 200Gb, maybe that is part of the problem.
