My HP IDE writer works fine with "mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdd /cdrom" as
slave. or "mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /cdrom" when I have it configured as
master. Which IDE controller you have it on shouldn't matter: I have my writer
and reader on one cable on the secondary.
Getting it to write is another story which I am still working on
getting SCSI emmulation etc to work :).
If it still wont mount some more detail on what it says when you cant
mount it would be helpfull!
Good luck!
