Re: xcdroast problem (Re: SCSI emulation in kernel 2.4.17 Solved)



Well, you're right, I placed the burner (using SCSI emulation)  on the same 
IDE cable as the hard disk and I tried to burn from the hard disk.
Actually, the guy I bough the writer suggested me to put the CD-reader and 
the writer on two different IDE cables in such a way I can easily copy from 
CD to CD. In such a case I had to put the burner in hdb because my CD-reader 
is not ATA100.
If I understand correctly your argument, I should move the burner to hdd and 
pass through a temporary image on the hard drive when copying from CD to CD ?
This may solve the problem, but maybe not.

I also wonder whether this is a problem particular to xcdroast or if this 
will also be present if I use gtoaster ? (I never tried direct usage of 
cdrecord)
