I've always had problems with cdrecord -scanbus I never seem to get the second scsi bus on my machines (where all the CD burners are) scaned but using cdrecord dev=1,4,0 speed=8 /path/to.iso works fine for my 8x4x24 Yam. First off SCSI emulation is the second scsi bus (as the first bus is your real scsi card). I'd be guessing that a virtual scsi controler would at the first scsi device (1,0,0) so I'd try 1,1,0. What I would do is to try to burn a cd without a cd in the burner starting at 1,0,0 and increasing that second number (the device id), you'll either get something about the device not existing or it'll barf when it checks the media but before then you'll get a load of info about te burner.

So. It seems that something else is taking control of the device before ide-scsi gets a chance to. That's usually ide-cd, the normal IDE CDROM driver in the kernel. You need to either leave it out (since you can just let ide-scsi do everything), or else tell it to ignore the burner. Or make it a module, and load one or the other when you want them. That would pretty much mean that you'd have to load ide-scsi by hand when you wanted it, unless you engaged in some trickery in /etc/modutils. Try telling ide-cd to ignore the drive, first. Add: append=hda=ide-scsi to your boot (in lilo.conf) and see then whether ide-scsi can control the drive. silly quote deleted, since it resolves to Digital Research being the creators of Windows, rather than Microsoft -- Marc Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] pgpVO6ubuF5Ho.pgp Description: PGP signature
IDE CD recorder, in machine with SCSI tape?
K, at this point i've tried this on 2 different machines. Here's the scenarion HP cd16ri CD recorder installed in machines with Aadaptec SCSI host card, each has exactly on device on the SCSI bus. Both are Debian potato + Progeny + 2.4x kernels ( one 2.4.3, and 1 2.4.9). On the machine at home I have the folowing modules loaded: Module Size Used by sg 22832 0 (autoclean) mousedev4496 0 (unused) input 3904 0 [mousedev] ide-scsi8112 0 aic7xxx 117072 0 scsi_mod 86368 3 [sg ide-scsi aic7xxx] ne 6880 1 NOw, acording to the CD Recording HOWTO, I should be able to run cdrecord -scanbus and see what my avaialble devise are. Unfortunately, on both machines it just reports 7 slots, one of which has the SCSI tape in it. How can I make this scenarion work? BTW on the machine at home the tape device is really a tape changer, and I can control it using mtx, so I know the SCSI generic stuff is working corectly.
