cd writer setup questions (SONY CRX175A2)



  system: debian unstable, kernel 2.4.17

  I just installed Sony CRX175A2 CD-r/RW drive (atapi/eide internal
drive). It looks like the drive is almost properly recognized, dmesg
contains:

hdc: SONY CD-RW CRX175E2, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

  Note that there is E instead of A in model number and it says CD/DVD
ROM drive while my drive is actually CD-R/RW (no DVD), not sure if
that's relevant.

  Now when I try to mount a data cd or play music cd it says that there
is no media in the drive (first command is with data CD in the drive,
second command is with the music CD in drive):


jojda:/home/erik# mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt
mount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: No medium found

jojda:/home/erik# workbone

/dev/cdrom: No medium found                      

  I tried to use the SCSI emulation but cannot find the docs how to do
it, I enabled the drivers, the kernel help mentions that there has to be
a kernel option hdc=scsi, but when I included this option in lilo (in
append) it errored out.

  line from /etc/lilo.conf

append  = "hdc=scsi"

  error message:

Kernel command line: auto BOOT_IMAGE=linux ro root=304 hdc=scsi
ide_setup: hdc=scsi -- BAD OPTION

  and the /dev/scd0 does not work:

jojda:/home/erik# mount /dev/scd0 /mnt
mount: /dev/scd0 is not a valid block device

  I've read "The Linux CD-ROM HOWTO" and "CD-Writing HOWTO" but it only
mentions scsi emulation with no real info on how to set it up.

  here's the list of modules I have currently loaded
