I've been having a problem for a while: when booting, haldaemon will fail, leaving me without CD/DVD and floppy drives available.
Has anyone else had this kind of problem? If so, can anyone suggest a solution?
Thanks for listening,

some more information would be helpful what version of centos and hal any fail reports _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Sorry about that:
CentOS 5.2 (Final) hal-0.5.8.1-35.el5 Gigabyte P35-DS3R Motherboard
I went through messages.* and found no direct references to HAL, but did notice messages like:
Dec 6 20:02:40 c-75-69-199-70 kernel: hdf: cdrom_pc_intr: The drive appears confused (ireason = 0x01). Trying to recover by ending request.
Both a WDC IDE hard drive and a Pioneer 112D CD/DVD Burner are on the only legacy IDE connector on the mobo, so I can't try a different IDE channel.
Hope this helps clarify things.
