Re: Nautilus CD burner
First off, some list etticate ;o) Since a mailing list is intended to be
a place of public discussion, it is proper to reply to the list rather
than directly to an individual - no need to CC anyone either (unless
they specifically request it), since most people who post to the list
are already subscribed and dont need a 2nd copy.
Now that that is out of the way...

What I was hinting at is this: you are using ide-scsi, which allows you
to treat your IDE device as a scsi device, and you claim that it is
working. This means that you refer to it using a scsi device (/dev/scd0)
name rather than an ide device name (/dev/hdd). So, bearing that in
mind, can you see what might be wrong about your /etc/fstab file?
you've got:
# device mount point fs type options dump pass
#-------- ------------- -------- -------- ---- -----
/dev/hdd /mnt/cdrw udf,iso9660 noauto,user,ro 0 0
what you probably want is:
# device mount point fs type options dump pass
#-------- ------------- -------- -------- ---- -----
/dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrw udf,iso9660 noauto,user,ro 0 0
that should allow you to mount your CD-ROM
However, I doubt any of this has anything to do with your nautilus
CD-creator problem. At what point is it "not seeing" your CD-RW drive?
Only in Nautilus CD-creator? Can you mount the drive, or play CDs with
it?
What is the output of the following commands?:
cdrecord -scanbus
cdrecord -scanbus dev=ATAPI
What have you done to investigate the problem to date?
