Hi, don't feel much better but thanks a lot!
in conclusion ?
1- hdc=ide-scsi, now should be hdc=ide-cd for general cd-writer, because
cdrecorder don't need scsi emulation anymore.
At least partially correct: don't use "hdc=ide-scsi".
However, I don't use "hdc=ide-cd" and I can burn CDs,
so that's not needed AFAIK.
2- as hdc already is ide-cd by default, therefore is not necessary to
write it and what should be made is erase the line hdc=ide-scsi.
Correct ?
Ah, yes, we seem to agree on that.
HTH.

cracks me up , Can someone translate this to English ?
I'll try.
It means: don't use the ide-scsi driver. Support for it is
lagging (not well-maintained) because it's really not needed for
burning CDs. Just use the ide-cd driver (module) and
specify the CD burner device as /dev/hdX.
Example with cdrecord:
deprecated:
cdrecord -dev=1,0,0 -data backup.iso
modern :)
cdrecord -dev=/dev/hdc -data backup.iso
Do you know how to _not_ use ide-scsi? Don't load the module
if you have it built as a module, or don't build it into the
kernel boot image. Mostly don't try to open /dev/sdX, just use
/dev/hdX instead.
Hope you feel better soon.
