You could have asked before, and we would have told you before: the ATAPI code was identical to 2.1.5. 2.1.6 was targeted to people like ISPs, and their #1 is not to operate an ATAPI CD-ROM drive. 2.2 is said to be way better in this respect. I've even seen it to work with some Mitsumi drive where DOS couldn't work with in this particular machine. =:-) So much for the ``ATAPI *standard*''... -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
