Try having it do so and see if modprobe works better. Apparently, root never has done that (root being me, with a plentiful supply of ignorance :) I'm surprised it wasn't covered in the RedHat installation procedure. So root (me) ran it, and then tried modprobe scsi_mod mount /mnt/cdrom and it worked! > > Then (but not before), /sbin/insmod ide-scsi works, after which > > X-CD-Roast works. > > > > However, trying to mount /mnt/cdrom still brings up a 'wrong fs type' > > message. > > Well, what is in the /etc/fstab line that mentions /mnt/cdrom? > Just for the record - /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 However, now X-CD-roast has stopped working. Even if I go and do a /sbin/insmod ide-scsi, which worked previously, it now still tells me "Failed to scan the SCSI-bus" Am I asking too much to want to read CD-ROM's *and* use X-CD-Roast on the same drive? (Not simultaneously!) I'll check the CD-writing HOWTO as X-CD-Roast's error message suggests and see if it gives any enlightenment. I suspect I need to carefully figure out just what I've got loaded.
