Thanks.. I had to replace my cd-rom with the burner, instead of adding the burner.. I would have liked to do this, but I have 2 HD's in the machine that take hda and hdb. I also have an internal zip that I don't want to part with for work purposes.. Maybe when I get a bigger HD someday I can add my cd rom back for copy purposes.

Re: [expert] CD burner Howto..
Civileme, Are you saying that: alias block-major-11 ide-scsi post-install modprobe ide-scsi [note the correct spelling of post-install ] in /etc/conf.modules can effectively replace my suggested modprobe ide-scsi modprobe sg in /etc/rc.d/rc.local? I suspect one still needs the lilo.conf append to indicate which ide interface is to be treated as scsi emulation. Then there arises the question of shifting the modprobes for all those ipchains masquerading filters to invoke from /etc/conf.modules. How would that be done?

Re: [expert] CD burner Howto..
No, you substitute the real location for what is shown in the example. BTW, I have heard (but not investigated) that using this technique on an IDE CD-ROM will improve transfer speeds.

Re: [expert] CD burner Howto..
Alan, Assuming L-M 7.1 and the new burner is an ATAPI IDE device, as root you must set up hd?=ide-scsi in your lilo.conf stanza (then run lilo) as well as place modprobe ide-scsi modprobe sg at the end of your /etc/rc.d/rc.local. After reboot from scratch, you can then access the cd-reader part as /dev/sr0, and cdrecord -scanbus should find your cd-writer part.

Re: [expert] CD burner Howto..
Mandrake's web-site has a great tutorial on getting u're IDE CD to run under 7.0.. follow that and things will be fine. (u need to set u're IDE cd as a SCSI). For buring, I find gtoaster and kisocd really good! kisocd is really good to make quick copies and CDs.. use gtoaster for music CDs. I wish they make better GUIs though!

Any advice is welcome. > > Alan Not sure Alan, but it sounds like you're in a situation similar to the one I found myself in a month or so ago. I had 7.1 installed, it picked up my Ricoh 7040 and had it fully functional, along with a BCD CDrom as master on the second IDE. BUT then the Ricoh died a little later. Sent it back and gotta Plex 8432. Problem I faced, was the Ricoh would only install as slave, when I got the Plex I made it master (2nd IDE, the BCD 40x CDrom is still on this IDE, but as slave). Anyway, to make a long story short, after fsck'in around tryin to delete/re-create the links to 'cdrom' and 'cdrom2', I just stuck the 7.1 install CD back in, booted from it, chose upgrade, and let it fix all that @#$!^ stuff. Sure'nuff, on the fresh reboot, I now have a fully functional Plex as master, BCD as slave. Masha danki Mandrake !! Hardware recognition and setup works in spite of this user ;> BTW, the 'upgrade' only took a few minutes ;) Question: I d/l mp3's with Linux, convert and burn them to audio CD's with Windoze (Nero), and they play as such (.cda's) in every damn piece of junk CD player I can find. Including the 6 year old junk Sony in my pic'up, and my grandaughter's Fisher Price toy! They play in my BCD CDrom or the Plex CD-RW in Winblows, but not in the same hardware in Linux, how come?? I use high quality TaiyoyUden blanks. -- ~~ Tom Brinkman[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I don' know how much help kudzu was in setting up configuration, but hen it mainly makes hardware drivers talk to the device and the system. What version, what distro, and what does dmesg say?
