Hi Alex,

Yes, I tried : look at the end of the message, it was unsuccessful.

Yes but parport is ... and the drive is connected to the parallel port.

[root@f5ibh] ~ # mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
mount: you must specify the filesystem type

[root@f5ibh] ~ # mount /dev/sda1 /mnt -t ext2
mount: /dev/sda1 has wrong major or minor number

        This is not the case (I think) : it works perfectly with ac19 and
previous ones and with the 2.2.16 version of the kernel.

[root@f5ibh] ~ # ls -l /dev/sda1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 1 mai 10 1999 /dev/sda1

I've tried to load the modules in the correct order with 'insmod' one by
one, the result is the same as with 'modprobe ppa'
