Re: ide cdrom -> scsi emu problems
Since you are in SCSI emulation, you need to change softlink:
/dev/scd0 ->/dev/cdrom
(check dmsg to be sure)
Actually, you do not need to recompile kernel to get ide-scsi
to work. Debian default kernel has module support. Enable them
by adding following line in lilo.conf
append="hdc=ide-scsi apm=on"
apm=on was for auto-shutdown-power.
If you had hdd as cd-RW, change to hdd=.
Good luck.
