Re: CDROM as SCSI

I've got a recent Woody install (kernel=2.2.20) and I'm trying to eventually use cdrecord. Towards that end I added the usual line to lilo.conf and I got these results:
1) /dev/cdrom -> /dev/scd0
2) lsmod shows ide-scsi 3) kernel doesn't believe /dev/scd0 is a block device.

I've looked at the scsi how-to and it seems a little out of my league. I'm guessing that Debian has a package that needs to be installed. Can anyone help?


I have a 'stock' Debian 2.4.18-K7 kernel.
I have cdrecord working nicely.

check fstab.  Mine reads:
/dev/sr0   /cdrom   iso9660...
        ^^^

Maybe the kernel doesn't believe /dev/scd0 because it isn't.

I have two CD's in my box, CD-R and CD-RW. After I installed the modules for ide-scsi emulation they both changed from the original /dev/hdc, /dev/hdd to /dev/sr0, /dev/sr1 despite the fact that the hdc device cannot do CD-RW.
