This is the first time Im really trying to implement my cd burner 7.1 pro kernel 2.2.18 SuSE reconises my plain ATAPI cd as hdc and when the machime boot Dmesg seems to see both CDroms hdd =plain atapi hdc = acer8xcdr So I go into yast>integrate hardware> select cd/dvd then select the approaite hdc and hdd This seems to have *no* effect whatsoever! Im trying to access the burner software KDBurn or something and it dosent see the burner. Ive installed cdroast but it dosnt show up in the menu items (wondering why that is....) any help? thanks rob

Confused here - is your plain ATAPI CD hdc or hdd?

You need to use the ide-scsi module, because the CD drive needs to be accessed as a SCSI device in order for cdrecord/xcdroast/etc. to see it (it probably uses the SCSI command set internally anyway). To do this, at the LILO prompt, type 'linux hdc=ide-scsi' (assuming that the burner is /dev/hdc). Now you can do a 'cdrecord -scanbus' and see if the burner shows up. If it does, you can set up some things like an fstab entry, and placing the the 'hdc=ide-scsi' as an append line in lilo.conf, and so on.

Well I dont use LILO, I have a multiboot using loadlin from a windows/dos aattoexec If you look at the boot msg youll see they arent scssi. The problem is when I go into yast and select the *approaite* "module" .... nothing happens!! even if I do select scssi... nothing happens,,, no confirmation... the window just goes away hence the problem

Hi there. Using other means to boot than lilo is just plain ...........ss Using "loadlin" causes more trouble with configuring what modules load during boot time.Anyway if your atapi module grabs your cdr-rw first you don`t have chance with ide-scsi module. Here is what you could do if you boot with lilo:(As I don`t use loadlin you have to figure yourself integrating following) - login as root - with YaST configure the kernel so that you add in the append-line hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi (or whatever your devices are,check your boot.msg) (assuming your CD-drives are on master and slave on the secondary bus) - substitute in the file /etc/modules.conf the line with alias scsi_hostadapter off by alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi Add at the end of the file /sbin/init.d/boot.local a line with /sbin/modprobe ide-scsi - Enter the following commands (still as root): ln -sf /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrom ln -sf /dev/scd1 /dev/cdrom1 Hope it helps See ya Al. A Note :You can choose whether to emulate ide-scsi your plain cdrom by not including that "hdd=ide-scsi so cdrom will stay "atapi"
Just a quick update regarding burning cds on SuSE. I followed Chris Reeves advise and did the following I use loadlin from a dos partition so first passed the ide-scssi parameters to the kernal ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [config.sys on windows98] [menu] menuitem=Win98, Boot to Windows 98... menuitem=Linux, Boot to SuSE Linux 7.1 ... menucolor=15,1 (This gives a blue background with white text) menudefault=Linux, 90 [linux] shell=c:\boot\loadlin.exe c:\boot\Vmlinuz root=/dev/hda2 ro hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ then added to [/etc/init.d/boot.local] /sbin/modprobe ide-scsi #this is rite out of the suse manual configuration pg 160 #as the the below linking procedure ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ then simply created links to *both* ide drives ln -sf /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrom ln -sf /dev/scd1 /dev/cdrom1 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ rebooted and Wallah! Im using x-cd-roast!! I can burn data cds at about 200M=10min music cds are a bit disappointing, seems to take forever to burn a audio cd. This is partly to do with the inability to copy "on the fly" meaning the data has to be written to the hard drive first I can live with that as I mostly make data cds . Overall Im impressed, although I have to admit from the beginnig I though having to *trick* Linux into thinking my ide cdroms were scsi. Its definetly a mandatory to perform this "emulation" Thanks to Chris and all others who help me get this going pretty cool! rob rob wrote:
