I just noticed that my CD-WRITER is not working in RH-8.0, and yet it worked fine in previous versions. My CD-ROM reader works fine. But not the Writer and yet it is mounted in the /etc/fstab file ok. ( /dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 )
When I bring up XCDroast, I see this message : "No CD-WRITER or CD-ROM device detected. For ATAP/IDE devices under Linux you have to enable SCSI-Emulation in the kernel in order to activate them. Please see the X-CDroast howto to do that." Well - with all that being said, I first checked my kernel configuration and I see that a module for 'ISO 9660 CD-ROM file system Support" has been compiled in the kernel, as well as full SCSI support. So unless there is something else in the Kernel, I have to look else where. So, I went to the HOWTO docs for XCDroast and I see reference to the kernel support and also a suggestion to run /sbin/insmode ide-scsi. Well that did nothing for me although it did load the 'kernel drivers for ide-scsi.0" This leaves me with the question - where else do I look? Or does anyone have a suggestion as to how to get this CD-WRITER to work? -- T.L.Gervais Coldbrook, NS Canada. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
