Parallel on intel mini

[bhagiratha]

I installed the beta version on my intel mini core duo, all went fine, but am not able to read off my mac's cd drive.
I must say it runs very fast.I have runned into some kernal panics ... actually quite a few since I installed this beta. Also I keep getting this message:
"unable to open device /file/dev/rdisk4s0"
am having a hard time getting it to read from my cd drive.
I installed the additions but still no luck. also, how do I share my drives via this program.

I followed the instructions to the letter for OSX but it won't read the windows CD in the drive? How could I make an ISO of it and put it on the computer to use the virtualization?

You need to put a CD in the drive and let it mount in OS X before running Parallels. It's a known bug.

After upgrading to Beta 2 on my dual mini, I still have these issues:

No Sound;
No audio input;
No Bluetooth;
Spotty CD support;
No CD/DVD write support;
SLOW video (compared to OSX or Boot Camp);
No filesharing between OSX and XP;
VNC not functioning;
SMB not working (although I am still trying to sort this out).
