I found grub.conf after # mount /dev/hde1 /boot
# nano -w /boot/grub/grub.conf root (hd0,0) kernel (hd0,0)/boot/kernel-2.4.20-gntoo-r7 root=/dev/hde3 hda=ide-scsi initrd (hd0,0)/boot/initrc-2.4.20-gentoo-r7
Hardware config harddrive - hde, connected to ATA controller cdrom - Primary IDE as master cd burner - Primary IDE as slave
KDE desktop Create New -> CD/DVD-ROM Device under Device tag Device only having /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 (mnt/cdrom)
Could not find /dev/cdroms/cdrom1 Can I change it to /dev/cdroms/cdrom1 '/dev/cdroms/cdrom1' can be edited
I tried hda/hdb/hdc still the same. Rebooted PC after each change made

Did you modify your lilo or grub configuration? What happens is the IDE controller grabs the CD-R device and then the ide-scsi mod can't access it.
You need to add the 'hdX=scsi' (where X is the device letter) argument at boot. i.e my grub.conf reads kernel=(hd1,0)/bzImage root=/dev/hdd hdc=ide-scsi
This tells the IDE controller not to touch hdc, which leaves it for the ide-scsi mod to configure it.

Hi all folks,
Just added a IDE CD burner as slave
As root # echo -e "ide-scsi\nsg\nsr_mod" >> /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.4 # depmod
