RE: fstab entry for cd-rw device?



I had to add a line to lilo to get it to use scsi-ide. Here is my entry for
lilo:

image = /boot/vmlinuz
  root = /dev/hdb3
  label = linux
  append="hdd=ide-scsi"

Where /dev/hdd is my cdr. You could also just type that in manually at the
LILO prompt during boot. This I found on the CD BURNING HOWTO on
www.linuxdoc.org


HTH,

I dont have the exact link handy, but if you visit xcdroast.org and click
the ling near teh bottom for a CD writing HOWTO, it will describe how to
do the following:

you are not getting your cdrom under scsi-emulation because the IDE-cd
driver is loaded for that device.  You need to tell ide-cd not to load
itself for your CD, as ide-scsi/sg will only pick up devices that arent
handled nativly by the ide drivers.  There is a way to do this in
modules.conf, but i simply just recompiled my kernel and didnt include IDE
cdrom support as a module or in the kernel, so nothing to get int the way
of ide-scsi.  My cd-r works great once i figured that out.
