Tinycore 2.7 does not detect a second optical drive

[u54749]

I have two optical drives in my desktop system: a DVD-ROM drive and a DVD rewriter.
In tc 2.6 and earlier the DVD-ROM was visible as /mnt/hdc and the rewriter as /mnt/hdd.

But since version 2.7 hdc does not show any more in /mnt.

I can still mount it manually:
sudo mkdir /mnt/hdc
sudo mount /dev/hdc /mnt/hdc
and then I can read the disc in the drive

cat /etc/fstab:

cat /etc/sysconfig/cdroms
/dev/hdd /dev/hdd

It is not necessarily two optical drives, as I have such, and it works just fine.
cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info displays multiple optical drives on my test system.

So, how is your undetected optical drive connected to your system?
What is the device name under /dev ?
What is its major device number ?

how is your undetected optical drive connected to your system:
Via IDE connector.  Both drives are on the same IDE port and cable, so one of it is master and the other slave (but to see which one is the master I have to disassemble my system).
I have 2 IDE ports on my system.  The other one connects two IDE hard disks.

What is the device name under /dev ? hdc

What is its major device number ?  hdc --> major=22, minor=0
                                                        hdd --> major=22 minor=64

Thanks for reporting and supplying the needed info.  I have it corrected for v2.8rc1.
