Rebuilt kernel and CD-ROM problem.

Hi all: A laptop installed with slink and the 2.0.36 kernel was upgraded to potato with no problems. The upgraded system continued to use the original 2.0.36 kernel. Everything worked fine. I decided to upgrade to the 2.2.15 kernel, so I installed the source, ran menuconfig and went through

I found that I had the best results when I compiled the sbpcd driver into the kernel and eliminated all autoprobing, etc. You will need to edit /usr/src/linux/include/linux/sbpcd.h, which has sufficient comments to tell you what is needed. I had even better results when I replaced my CD-ROM with

I have some older versions from Trans-Ameritech CDs, but when I heard about Debian being included on the November "Boot" magazine disk I thought I'd give it a try. I had installed the base Slackware 1.2.28(I think?), but was unable to get X running, though it would come up; nothing more. My probl
