Hi Paul,

I found  grub.conf  after
# mount /dev/hde1 /boot
# nano -w /boot/grub/grub.conf
root  (hd0,0)
kernel  (hd0,0)/boot/kernel-2.4.20-gntoo-r7 root=/dev/hde3 hda=ide-scsi
initrd   (hd0,0)/boot/initrc-2.4.20-gentoo-r7
Hardware config
harddrive - hde, connected to ATA controller
cdrom - Primary IDE as master
cd burner - Primary IDE as slave
KDE desktop
Create New - CD/DVD-ROM Device
under  Device  tag
Device only having
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 (mnt/cdrom)
Could not find  /dev/cdroms/cdrom1
Can I change it to  /dev/cdroms/cdrom1   '/dev/cdroms/cdrom1' can be edited
I tried  hda/hdb/hdc  still the same.  Rebooted PC after each change made

B.R.
Stephen
Did you modify your lilo or grub configuration?
What happens is the IDE controller grabs the CD-R device and then the
ide-scsi mod can't access it.
You need to  add the 'hdX=scsi' (where X is the device letter) argument
at boot.
i.e my grub.conf reads
kernel=(hd1,0)/bzImage root=/dev/hdd hdc=ide-scsi
This tells the IDE controller not to touch hdc, which leaves it for the
ide-scsi mod to configure it.

Hi all folks,

Just added a IDE CD burner as slave

As root
# echo -e ide-scsi\nsg\nsr_mod  /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.4
# depmod

What's in /dev - any entries for the device?   If not 
check /etc/devfsd.conf and see if you need to uncomment or 
add anything.

Login as ROOT, KDE desktop
Create New 'CD/DVD-ROM Device to start 'Properties for 
CDROM-Device.desktop'
Under 'Device' tag - could not locate CDBurner

Kindly advise.  Thanks in advance.

What does 'cdrecord --scanbus' return?

If you don't have it, you need to emerge cdrtools.

Hi Paul,

I am running grub but can't locate grub.conf

Locate grub.conf

only found 'grub.conf.sample'

no directory or file under  /boot/

Where can I find it.   Thanks.
