Had the same problem, etch only found the external USB CDROM drive that it had been installed with. So I made 2 entries in /etc/fstab /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0 /dev/hdb /media/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0 /dev/sr0 /cdrom2 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0 /dev/hdc /media/cdrom2 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0 So I made 2 entries in /etc/fstab The last two. The first were created by the installer. The second two were created by me. Might have to reboot to get them recognised. Hope that helps.
