Kernel command line:

Shouldn't the value of append show up there?

My next course of action, (and I'm running out of courses [:)] , is to recompile the kernel without IDE/ATAPI support. Any other ideas?


YEs, I have:

Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=2.4.17 ro root=303 hdd=ide-scsi devfs=nomount

Have you rerun lilo? Just making sure it's not a stupid mistake...

Well, recompiling the kernel without ide/atapi support did the trick. And adding hdb=ide-scsi (as well as hdc=ide-sci) to the kernel command line. And moving the /dev/cdrom simlink to /dev/scd8. Also, linking /dev/cdrw to scd0 and adjusting fstab accordingly. I don't know if all these steps are strictly necessary but that's the way things landed when I finally got it working, so I ain't touching it... :)

FWIW, my experience would seem to indicate that the information in README.ATAPI that states you can have both scsi emulation and ide/atapi support concurrently would appear to be erroneous.

Thanks all,
James
