Installed a yamaha lightspeed (eide). cdrecord say where your scsi?
Blue say huh? Blue try to figure out the whole scsi emulation thing.
Much trouble to find a simple solution. Read linux gazette articles
from September 2000. There was nothing to configure in harddrake, I
don't think it detected that this was a burner and needed to be scsied
or whatever.
Could we patch in a tiny little (I guess one click thing) that would set
this up for neophytes?
Here is what I did (hdd is the burner):
Changed /etc/lilo.conf as follows:
image=--------
label=------
root=-------
initrd=------
append="hdd=ide-scsi"
read-only
Changed rc.local as follows:
At very end added 'modprobe ide-scsi'
-----------
Simple as anything but since mandrake is the newbie friendly distro I
figured it might be good to add in. Doesn't really seem like a feature
or I wouldn't have mentioned in this cycle. Just a patch to me but I no
programmer to do it.
