Hi! Some ideas: 1) add something like this to /etc/lilo.conf append= hdc=ide-scsi see below: image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.8-26mdk label=linux root=/dev/hdb5 initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.8-26mdk.img append= hdc=ide-scsi devfs=mount read-only 2) assure that SG

Just a curiousity. If you do lsmod do you have ide-scsi and scsi_mod installed? What happens if you try to manually start them with insmod? James On Sat, 05 Jan 2002 21:40:13 -0800 Ric Tibbetts [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ok, now I'm frustrated. I have a SCSI CD/RW (Yamaha). that has

I had to modify modules.conf to get mine to work. I used info from the Cdwriter HOW-TO to modify it. It's interesting that so many people are having trouble getting their CD RW devices to work after upgrading from another distro or from Mandrake 7.2 to 8.1. At 09:40 PM 1/5/2002 -0800, Ric
