    I would really appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction with this as I really want to try out slackware on a spare harddrive I'm going to put into my computer in work, therefore avoiding the iGnomey of having to work in M$ all day.

    I *think* the kernel in FC2 doesn't need ide-scsi emulation. You should be safe setting "dev=/dev/cdrom" or whatever your cdrom device is.

    Linux without a C Compiler is like eating Spaghetti with your mouth sewn shut. It just doesn't make sense.

    dev=1,1,0
    Use dev=ATA:1,1,0 instead
