I had to add a line to lilo to get it to use scsi-ide. Here is my entry for lilo:
image = /boot/vmlinuz root = /dev/hdb3 label = linux append="hdd=ide-scsi" Where /dev/hdd is my cdr. You could also just type that in manually at the LILO prompt during boot. This I found on the CD BURNING HOWTO on www.linuxdoc.org HTH, Steven Beverly "Failure is not an option, it comes pre-installed with your Windoze software..." -Unknown "He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster...when you gaze long into the abyss the abyss also gazes into you." -Friedrich Nietzsche -----Original Message----- From: Casey Webster [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, January 27, 2001 2:57 PM To: Stefan Srdic Cc: Osamu Aoki; David B .

I dont have the exact link handy, but if you visit xcdroast.org and click the ling near teh bottom for a CD writing HOWTO, it will describe how to do the following: you are not getting your cdrom under scsi-emulation because the IDE-cd driver is loaded for that device. You need to tell ide-cd not to load itself for your CD, as ide-scsi/sg will only pick up devices that arent handled nativly by the ide drivers. There is a way to do this in modules.conf, but i simply just recompiled my kernel and didnt include IDE cdrom support as a module or in the kernel, so nothing to get int the way of ide-scsi. My cd-r works great once i figured that out. -Casey On Sat, 27 Jan 2001, Stefan Srdic wrote: > Thanks for all of your replys guys. I still have been unable to get my cd-rw > working under Linux.
