Re: I accidently deleted sr0, now I can't recover cd access

I don't know if it would work or not, but I would disconnect the power
and ribbon cable on the cd. Then boot up. When it reboots hopefully the
computer will recognizes the change in the hardware. Save the
configuration. Shutdown the computer reconnect the cables and see if it
autodetects the cd and reinstalls itself properly. Again, I don't know
if this would work but it might be worth a try.
