I have a hardware setup which includes two atapi cdrom like drives - /dev/hdc is a cd rewriter (or cd recorder) and /dev/hdd is a dvd drive.
I am running a 2.6 kernel (2.6.7-k7-1) which is supposed to automatically include ide-scsi without the need to load a module. I have set up udev to create /dev/hdc and also a symlink /dev/cdrw to point to it. I am trying to use cdrecord to make a cd. But it seemingly hangs (forever). It outputs the information below and then suspends (and ctrl C does not kill it). [EMAIL PROTECTED] debcd $ cdrecord -eject speed=12 dev=/dev/cdrw sarge-i386-netinst.iso cdrecord: No write mode specified. cdrecord: Asuming -tao mode. cdrecord: Future versions of cdrecord may have different drive dependent defaults. cdrecord: Continuing in 5 seconds...
