Re: DVD burning problem Plextor PX-708A using xcdroast cdrecord.prodvd
Problem solved!
I appended the following four lines to
/etc/modules.conf
options ide-cd ignore=hdd
pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi
pre-install sr_mod modprobe ide-scsi
pre-install ide-scsi modprobe ide-cd
as Jan Labanowski writes in his review on the subject
http://www.ccl.net/cca/software/UNIX/Sony_DRU-510A_DVD+RW_burner/README-DRU-510A.html
My DVD writer is slave on the 2nd IDE interface as in
Jans case
Note after reboot the system changes mount point names
in /etc/fstab and in the /mnt directory.
DVD burning then works.
