the Win4Lin installation program probably forgot to add hdc=ide-scsi to the
kernel boot options.  How you add this depends on if you use LILO or GRUB,
but you should see the corresponding line in your setup for the original
kernel.

[expert] How does LM 7.1 setup my CD-burner?

2000-09-21 Thread Viktor Lakics

Hi all,

Yesterday I installed the eval version of win4lin under Mandrake 7.1.
I *had* my Sony CR-X100 burner automagically setup until that point,
using scd0 and I guess scsi emulation.  Win4lin replaced my kernel
with a (LM7.1-specific rpm) kernel to have some extensions for the
program. Next boot time, and kudzu informed me that I do not have a CD
burner any more...

Soon I found out, that my CD-drive moved back to /dev/hdc, obviously
because of the new kernel. If I select the old kernel from lilo, I
have a CD-burner, but I do not have win4lin since the kernel
extensions are missing.

Does anyone know an easy config step (I meant loading a module, or
making adjustments) to set up my CD-burner and have the new kernel as
well?

Thanks

Viktor
