RE: How to enable SATA ATAPI support?
I ended up editing the drivers/scsi/libata-core.c and changing
the atapi_enabled variable from 0 to 1. That worked for me.

Subject: How to enable SATA ATAPI support?
Hello,
hope I've made it to right place for my problem. I recently got a
SATA-DVD-Burner (Plextor PX-712SA) which isn't recognized by my linux
system (Ubuntu Breezy). After searching the net I found out the
following things, that I need kernel 2.6.15 (which I installed) and that
either there should be the argument
libata.atapi_enabled=1
passed to the kernel in /boot/grub/menu.lst or a file named "libata"
with the content
options libata atapi_enabled=1
should be created in /etc/modprobe.d/ and afterwards the kernel should
be reconfigured by
dpkg-reconfigure [kernel-name]
I tried it both ways and also in combination but no matter what I do,
the following message always appears, when booting the system:
ata1(0): WARNING: ATAPI is disabled, device ignored.
I have to admit I'm quite new to linux and still in a state, where I
learn to understand how certain things work, so I wanted to ask if
anybody has an idea what went wrong so far?
Kind regards,
Jan
