Hello all.

First off, I'd like to give kudos to the Plan 9 Guys.  I've had a lot of fun
playing with the free PC distribution.  I just got the full distribution and
I'm excited to get it going, which leads me to my question.

I have an IDE CDROM drive on my PC, and quite simply I was wondering if there
is any way that I can mount it under Plan 9.  I tried various incantations of
bind on '#H1' (it is my second IDE (slave) drive), to no avail.  I suspect one
of two things:  (I suppose these are obvious...)

  1.  I have the wrong incantation, or
  2.  IDE CDROM drives will not work with Plan 9 currently.

I suspect #2 is the right answer.  Thanks for any suggestions.  I may just
borrow a SCSI CDROM and use that, but I'd like to be able to use my CDROM
drive in the long term.  (I have a PC in transition from IDE to SCSI, so I
can deal with both...)

Jon
