Re: IDE burning

[Osamu Aoki <debian@aokiconsulting.com>]

Burning is the best thing on Linux.

Debian standard kernel has all you need as modules so no need to
recompile kernel to get CDRW.

1. make link /dev/cdrom
 # cd /dev; rm -f cdrom ;ln -s scd0 cdrom

2.  In /etc/lilo.conf, add apppend line such as:
# Kernel command line options that apply to all installed images go
# here.  See: The `boot-prompt-HOWO' and `kernel-parameters.txt' in
# the Linux kernel `Documentation' directory.
#
# append=""
append="hdc=ide-scsi apm=on"


3. Add modules in /etc/modules
(My full file here.)
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file should contain the names of kernel modules that are
# to be loaded at boot time, one per line.  Comments begin with
# a #, and everything on the line after them are ignored.
#
# eth0, eth1 (Linksys and Kingston)
tulip
#
# CD-RW drive
ide-scsi
sg
#
# Sound card
es1371
#
# all ip_masq modules
ip_masq_ftp
