| |
I'm not a member of this list, but I had a question.... Is there any particular reason why a cdrom block device isn't a module (like the floppy)? Forgive me if this is no longer true (I'm using kernel 2.0.25), but it would be very convinient for us who run linux on a laptop with a swappable cdrom/floppy. I have to boot with the cdrom in first in order for it to be recognized. So if I boot with the floppy inserted first, I can't use the cdrom until the next boot.
Just thought I'd ask....
