I replaced my DVD R/W to a newer dual_layer drive.

Since doing none of the "Optical Disks" functionswork.

I know the hardware is detected, see dmegs below:

--snip ---
Probing IDE interface ide1...
hdd: LITE-ON DVDRW SHW-160P6S, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

I looked in /dev and found the dvd and cdrom were still linked to hdc.

So I deleted the links for dvd -> /dev/hdc and cdrom -> /dev/hdc and
recreated them for dvd -> /dev/hdd and cdrom -> /dev/hdd

But that failed to fix the problem.

When I try to import a cd the screen just flashes a few time and then hangs
until you hit escape,
and when it tries to burn a DVD, I get the following message in the
mythburn.log when it gets to where it should burn the DVD:

--snip--

--snip--

What am I missing?

I'm running KnoppMyth R5C7

Thanks
