tnx for your remark....of course this is another issue, that might 
preclude any reading...but it is a bug created from upgrade
 Just to resume for any newbie (as I am) main issues:

- FC2 was un upgrade from FC1 (that was running very well)
- FC2 didn't create any simbolyc link between /dev/cdrom to /dev/hdc or 
/dev/cdrom1/hdd.....that is really annoying
- soundcard was not detected (and my old Creative card was working on 
FC1) and I had to install manually
- changed to udf in fstab
- an old ISA network card was replaced as not supported (unless you 
recompile kernel, that compared of 8 Euro .....made my decision very easy!!)

Tnx to everybody for great support (I am going to upgrade another router 
and I will report if similar issues arise)
