Hi, I´m trying to get a Plextor 712-SA DVD drive working on an Asus A8N-SLI with kernel 2.6.13. I can load the libata and sata_nv modules, and there are messages about adding and removing SATA devices. Also, it says the SATA device on the first SATA port, which is the DVD drive, is being configured for UDMA33.
I have only the first two SATA ports enabled in the BIOS, and they show up as scsi2 and scsi3. The system is SCSI only except for the DVD drive. I cannot access the DVD drive because there´s no device for it. It also doesn´t show up in /proc/scsi/scsi. I figure it should be accessible as /dev/sr1 or /dev/scd1 besides my SCSI CDROM which is scd0. But it doesn´t exist. Is there any documentation on the sata_nv and libata modules in the kernel docs? I couldn´t find anything useful for libata and nothing for sata_nv. Any ideas how I can get it working? Is there any manufacturer left making SCSI DVDs? SATA sucks.
