As I understand it, Master is the device on the end of the cable. My HD |
| 20 |
is on the end of one cable and is working fine as hda. My cdrom is at |
| 21 |
the end of the other cable, and works fine while booting from the cd. I |
| 22 |
beleive that my mother board only has 2 IDE ports and if I want more |
| 23 |
drives it will be on sata. |

From other post, I did 'modprobe ide-cd', result; |
| 26 |
Fatal: module ide-cd not found. |
