Brand new install of arch-0.6. I have most things up and running
except cd-rw and dvd. I'll list the things I've tried along with any
file info. From what I can/can't tell the scsi modules are not loading.
So basically I can't mount cd or dvd.

Hi dk.
The following line in your GRUB menu.lst file has an error:
kernel (hd0,1)/vmlinuz root=/dev/discs/disc0/part3 ro hdc=ide-scsi hdd-ide-scsi
You probably meant "hdd=ide-scsi" instead of "hdd-ide-scsi".
Regards,
Win

Well, my other though is moving up to kernel-2.6.5 Reading other
post this ide-scsi issue goes away. I have some reservations
because I have nVidia, ac97 i810_audio, and eth0 8139too...seems
there are a few issues. Maybe those are not a problem with 2.6.5
Anyway, how would you go about doing a kernel upgrade to be
able to boot to both the old kernel-2.4.26 and 2.6.5
Can I copy /etc/modules.conf over to /etc/modprobe.conf
and what to leave out or add? Then what to add/remove in
/etc/rc.conf MODULES
Then pacman -S kernel26
Then remove the hdc=ide-scsi from /boot/grub/menu.lst
Then how to add two kernels?
[newbie@localhost]# shutdown -r now
and kiss my newbie a** good-bye in one huge kernel panic
P.S.
On my first install attempt I had a kernel panic on a reboot.
I was left at a blinking cursor and no key response.
How do you get out of this?

No more ide-scsi
pacman -S kernel26
added the new vmlinuz26 to /boot/menu.lst

dk,
Welcome to Arch Linux! Woo-Hoo! Another archer to add to the ever growing ranks! If you ever need help, don't hesitate to first RTFM, THEN, if you can't figure it out, THEN, google the heck out of it, THEN, ask somebody else, THEN and ONLY THEN, post a message. Not really, I'm just giving you a hard time, but that is the way that I have learned. Being a complete Linux NooB, I had a bit of a learning curve, but Arch has made it MUCH easier to leave that "other" OS behind. I've been running Arch exclusively on my AMP XP200+ machine since March with only a few problems (all related to learning WTF I'm doing in Linux). Anyhow, Good luck! 8)
