Many mail readers (the ones that work properly [1]) will show what you hoped as your new thread as still being a reply to the post your replied to, which is confusing and can cause people to miss your post. Plus you can then avoid complaints about "thread hijacking". What I wanted to say was that for people moving to the 2.6 kernel, you can get the same error you mention about opening the cdrom device exclusively for another reason. On the 2.4 kernel you may have hdc=ide-scsi on your kernel commandline in lilo or /boot/grub/grub.conf. To work properly in 2.6 without this error and being unable to access your cdrom, you must change it to hdc=ide-cd. So there is another reason for getting the same errors. - -Andy [1] How does this work? When your mail reader is told to make a reply to a post, it adds some extra headers to give the post a context. Your post included the following in its headers section: References: <4021D215.8080001@xxxxxxxxxxxx> In-Reply-To: <4021D215.8080001@xxxxxxxxxxxx> This tells any good mail reader to show your post as being a reply to the post named in the headers. - -- Find your answer without waiting for replies....
