I've been running cooker for ages, but always with my own kernel (kernel.org) and no devfs. I have two cd burners, which have always worked perfectly.
I just switched to using the cooker kernel and devfs/devfsd. Now, no matter what I do, they seem to keep getting grabbed by the ide interface, instead of the ide-scsi, thus they are no longer available as burners, just readers. Could somebody who is using IDE CD burners with a cooker kernel and devfs, please send me the parts of their modules.conf and lilo/grub boot parameters that set this up. TTFN, Lonnie Borntreger
