cd drives and red hat 7.2

[Mike Distefano]

I had the same problem when I installed RH 7.2 on a laptop.  I don't
remember the exact command but it is documented on the RH web site.  Search
the RH 7.2 support web site for CD-ROM.

When I get home I'll look to see if I have it documented or boot up the
laptop and see if its still in the command history.
