Bug#183716: cdrom-detect: Failed to detect NEC drive on SCSI adaptec 2940uw



Ok,

I investigated further with this weekends CD image (2003-03-16).

discover all gives nothing.
discover --module all gives:
3c59X
aic7xxx
aic7xxx

The repeat is because we have both AIC7000 and AU2940 adapters, with
both use the aic7xxx module.

Running cdrom-detect on its own fails, giving no useful information.

If I load scsi-modules first, then run cdrom-detect, the it shows
"Loading AIC7XX .. kernel module..."
but fails to mount the CDROM.

It works if i do "insmod sr_mod.o " in another terminal; it seems to be
forgetting to do this.

Regards,
Alastair

He that would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from
oppression; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that
will reach to himself.
