Hi. > (Question #1 : is it true we have to use scsi emulation in order to > burn CDs with a IDE cd burner ?) Not exactly. However, it is true that the most popular free software CD recording application -- cdrecord -- works only with SCSI. I've never heard of a Linux free software CD recording application that works directly with IDE recorders, though there may be one. There is one for FreeBSD (there *had* to be, since FreeBSD doesn't support the SCSI-over-IDE trick that Linux, NetBSD, OpenBSD, etc. do). > The problems begin when the system tries to load the ide-scsi module > (when I manually load it with modprobe, when I run cdrecord > -scanbus, when I try to mount a CD, etc...).

If no one else chimes in with clever ideas, then this may be a question for the Linux (kernel) hackers. [Ominous music begins playing in the background.] Most of what you're doing seems like what I do, and I can use my IDE CD recorder just fine with cdrecord and ide-scsi. > PS one more thing : my cd burner does work (I've just tested it > under windows to check... and it works !) Lots of buggy hardware "works" with Windows. Unfortunately, that doesn't prove very much. Lucas -- Lucas Bergman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Tired of getting duplicate copies of mailing list messages?
