Hi all!

I have been searching all over the web (open sites).

Problem:
I have a SPARC-10 Ultra. It has a non-functional SUN IDE-cdrom in it. I
would like to replace it with "any" IDE-cdrom.
However, it does not compute!

Is it doable, replacing it with a non-SUN IDE-cdrom?
What are the requirements on the non-SUN IDE-cdrom?
Can I set some parameters?

Thankful for answers.
