I have been trying to set things up with a DVD on hdc and a CD-burner on hdd using modules, but without success.
I am using Debian/unstable with kernel 2.4.20 configured in the same way as the Debian package kernel-image-2.4.20-686, that is with a highly modular kernel. I am willing to believe that things might work more easily if I compiled in support for the DVD and CD-burners, but for the present I am stubborn and would like to make it work with modules. Although the DVD-drive works as expected, the CD-burner does not work properly.
