Re: [gentoo-user] CD burning fails to work

[Stephen Liu]

Hi Barry

I just re-checked  /boot/grub/grub.conf

Yes, confirm   'hdd=ide-scsi'

Sorry, it was a typing mistake.
   

Are you using a kernel without scsi emulation?  If so, do a "cdrecord
--scanbus dev=ATAPI".  I use a 2,6 kernel, and ATAPI burning works very
well.  cdrecord *will* protest about not using scsi, though.  

Here's the output on my home PC:

CDWriter is not there.  How to find which device belongs to CDWriter

TIA
