Hi everyone.
After adding the append=ide-scsi line in LILO and loading the ide-scsi
module in
boot.local I can no longer access my CD-RW as /dev/cdrom nor as /dev/scdx where I have tried all reasonable values of x. I get ' ... not recognised as block device'. The HOWTO has a script which tells me that I am missing the module sr_mod. I have SuSE 7.0 on a new machine and they tell me that with

optimised kernel that this is all I need. What is this sr_mod stuff?
BTW, my DVD drive still works fine on hdd. The CDRW is hdc.
If you are using ide-scsi CDRW can not be any longer hdc have you through YAST intergrated hardware and told yast that CDRW is at scdx which will create a symbolic link to your /dev/cdrom
ls -a /dev/cdrom should tell you the actual block if it is still pointing to hdc go and change it
Any ideas anyone?
