I have been unsuccessful getting the CDROM drive recognized using the ATAPI boot floppy (951104-SNAP). The CDROM is configured as the master and is the only drive connected to the card. Does this mean the hardware I am using is unlikely to work with the ALPHA ATAPI driver after I install 2.1 from a hard drive(as I installed 2.0.5)?
