First, your original suggestion did the trick.
Second, yes I see RESERVEDRIVELETTER=R, so I will re-attach the LiteOn

Thanks a bunch.

Only problems are:
1) The audio chip isn't supported by UniAud (AD1985 codec, AC97)
2) Power-off actually just reboots the machine instead.
3) I take it they got rid of eComCenter (the old Warpcenter)? Or is
there a way to create it?
