hdb: DF7910C(-D0161 ), ATAPI CDROM drive

The cdrom is connected to the primary channel as a slave.

1. Should I try to connect it to the secondary channel?
2. May be the problem is that I have a PnP sound card? If that is the
case, should I remove the sound card, install linux, recompile the kernel
and insert the card back?

Thanks to all af you,

Lazar
