Hi,

I'm trying to use a HP CDWriter+ 7500 with Linux. As you can see, the
kernel finds the device and even starts to read the CD but this attempt
fails.
I already tried to mount the CDROM by hand, but it doesn't work either.
Is the 7500 the problem or is it my brain (two cells, extend memory)
;-)

/var/log/boot.msg :

Thanks a lot for any help.
