2.2.19pre17 I think is the standard kernel in Debian 2.2r3
If you have the binary CDs you can use modconf (or is it modconfig) to install
and remove modules.
It's menu driven and easy to use.
I beleive you should install the sg module (SCSI Generic).
If your burner is an IDE burner you will also need to install the ide-scsi
module (or is that scsi-ide).
If you install the ide-scsi module you need to fiddle with the append line
in lilo to make your IDE drive appear as a SCSI drive, and you must make
the link /dev/cdrom point to the /dev/scd# that is now your CD-RW device.
I don't remember the syntax off the top of my head. I'm at my job where there's
no Linux boxes. I can look up the details for you when I get back home if
you want.
