Take a peek inside and make sure the drive is properly connected. Then call hardware if it stil does not work.<BR /><BR />It should show up on the gui disk browser.<BR /><BR />SEP Thu, 17 Aug 2006 10:28:55 GMT Steven E.

All three servers had Redhat loaded from CD's. However one of the servers once booted no longer sees the CD-ROM drive.<BR /><BR />The only difference I can see is that during booting the two servers that see the CD-ROM have the following entry in the boot log.<BR /><BR />ide0:BM-DMA at xxxxxxx, BIOS Settings: hda:DMA,hdb:pio<BR /><BR />The server that fails to see the CD-ROM when booted has the following entry.<BR /><BR />ide0:BM-DMA at xxxxxxx, BIOS Settings: hda:pio,hdb:pio<BR /><BR />Can anyone assist me in tracking down the problem.<BR /><BR />Ronnie Thu, 17 Aug 2006 10:20:26 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/problem-with-dl380-and-redhat-seeing-cdrom/m-p/3845436#M24724 Ronnie Doggart 2006-08-17T10:20:26Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/problem-with-dl380-and-redhat-seeing-cdrom/m-p/3845437#M24725 Shalom Ronnie,<BR /><BR />It sounds like a hardware problem.

This is to check if the hardware device works properly. If you can boot from the CD-ROM, then the hardware is correct, if not, then "software" level troubleshooting should be done.
