RE: Can not acces ide cdrom



Hey Bob, a Re: Bob?

I just went through this recently, so I hope I remember this correctly: the
device you want to operate as a CDROM needs to point to the SCSI device.

In /dev/
make /dev/CDROM a symlink to scd0

Subject: Can not acces ide cdrom


I am using Debian 3.0.0.
I installed it with a 2.2.20 kernel which did not have scsi support.
I later installed the 2.4.18 kernel and got support for my scsi cd burner
but
I have lost ability to read my ide cdrom.

Here is my fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>               <dump>
<pass>
/dev/hda8       /               ext2    errors=remount-ro       0       1
/dev/hda7       none            swap    sw                      0       0
proc            /proc           proc    defaults                0       0
/dev/fd0        /floppy         auto    user,noauto             0       0
/dev/cdrom      /cdrom          iso9660 ro,user,noauto          0       0

My cdrom mount points
debian:/home/bob# ls -l /cdrom*/
/cdrom/:
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            7 Sep 28 23:35 cdrom0 -> /cdrom0
/cdrom0/:
total 0
/cdrom1/:
total 0

my /dev/cdroms
debian:/home/bob# ls -l /dev/cdrom*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           11 Sep 28 23:35 /dev/cdrom ->
/dev/cdrom0
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            9 Sep 28 23:35 /dev/cdrom0 ->
/dev/scd0
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            9 Sep 28 23:35 /dev/cdrom1 ->
/dev/scd1

How do I regain access to my ide cdrom?
Thanks
bob
