This I believed may have been asked before, but I am new to this list
and I hope I can get it resolved.
I have a IDE CDR as hdb and a IDE CDRW as hdc, no problem. I know in
order to use cdrecord I must use ide-scsi, no problem as I had this
exact same setup working with cdrecord when this was a 2.2.x system. Ok,
I upgrade the hard drive, hda, and install 2.4.5 kernel from Slackware
8.0. I always install just what I need,and install things as I need
them, usually from source. That's how you learn.
Ok, I need cdrecord working. No problem, I've done this before. Get the
cdrtools-1.10.tar.gz and have at. builds no problem. Build kernel with
scsi emulation, put the append command in lilo.conf, do the modules.conf
thing and link /dev/cdrom to /dev/scd0 and /dev/cdrw to /dev/scd1.
Reboot and I can mount both /dev/cdrom and /dev/cdrw as ro filesystems.
lsmod shows:
Module Size Used by
isofs 18032 1 (autoclean)
sr_mod 13024 1 (autoclean)
sg 21408 0 (autoclean)
ide-scsi 7904 1

cdrom 27520 0 [sr_mod ide-cd]
scsi_mod 81904 3 (autoclean) [sr_mod sg ide-scsi]
3c59x 24224 1
Ok, I try cdrecord -scanbus, and get he following warning:

Where did the Warning: come from? Trying to burn from xcdroast causes an
error box stating the same and refuses to write.
I did everything like the cd writer how-to specifies, just like I did
before, I think? Did I miss something?
I google searched and found plenty of postings with the same problem,
but couldn't find any with the answer. One thing I did notice that they
all involved 2.4.x kernel. Is that the problem?
