- I suspect I am banging my head against a brick wall, but...
-
- Does anyone know if it is possible to use non-IBM CD-ROM players with a RS6K
- (in particular a 320 with AIX 3.2.3)?
-
- The official response from IBM is that they have only supplied entries in ODM
- for the IBM player (ie. no 'oscdrom'), and they didn't know of anyone that had
- accomplished it.
-
- I have an unused SUN CD-ROM (the innards are a SONY mechanism), and I am sick
- of NFS mounting the INFO CD from an unreliable SUN machine.
-
- All Responses gratefully received...
