Re: Trying to get my CD-RW to work

Hi
I have install debian 3.0r2 i386 about 2 weeks ago,
now I am trying to get my CD-RW to work this what I have.
That's inside the computer
IDE 1    Master- HD All used for Debian
IDE 2 - Master is a BCD-24XHM-CDROM
           Slave - LG-CD-RW CED-8120B
What do I need to do to getting my CD-RW to work so
that I can start burning CD's


What does "uname -r say?

If "2.4.x":

    add "hdc=scsi hdd=scsi" to your /etc/lilo.conf kernel options

          append="hdc=scsi hdd=scsi"

If "2.6.x":

    You should already be there.  "cdrecord --scanbus dev=atapi"

I have 2.4.26 on Sarge and I use my CD-RW as ATAPI device. So 2.4.x doesn't necessarily mean the CD-RW is SCSI, does it?
