+
+<Para>
+Yes, of course it is. Linux supports the IDE interface used by all
+modern IDE CD-ROM drives. It has been like this since kernel version
+1.1.85.

+
+<Para>
+Unlike for the older proprietary drives, there isn't a specific driver
+for each model of ATAPI/IDE CD-ROM drives. All drives conforming to
+the standard should work with the ATAPI CD-ROM driver included in the
+standard Linux kernel.

+<Para>
+You may be running into an issue with hardware that does not support
+DMA (Direct Memory Access). RedHat ships a highly tuned version of the
+Linux kernel which enables DMA on selected IDE controller chipsets.
