Since you're using an Atapi system, one thing
which could be causing your grief is if you have
your BIOS set to cable select the master/slave
drives (as opposed to using jumper
select). Just last week, there was quite a big
discussion on The Register
(www.theregister.co.uk) about a software

I had this kind of problem with ONE intel board! SE440BX-2.
It has TWO ide and just accept CD-rom or CR-writer as slaves!!!

Hmmm. Actually, the writer is IDE/ATAPI with SCSI emulation via the ide-scsi
module. The drive is detected just as the normal ATAPI CDROM on my system is.
I have now managed to get two CDs burned without difficulty (not too loud or
it will jinx it) but set the speed to 1x instead of 2x. I

CDRW has a constant, blinking activity light and it is now
The constant blinking activity is a SCSI command error.
The SCSI cpu doesn't know what to do and has gone offline hence your
errors.
If you shut down your system and restart, everything will be ok again.
You might want to TURN DOWN the data rate on the SCSI drive via the
controller's BIOS.
How do I turn down the data rate? I am not sure how I am supposed to access
the controller's bios. I have set it to 2x write speed (it is a slow CD
burner). Are you saying I must try 1x? Also...there is no way other than a
reboot to get it back?

No, the data rate for SCSI xfers is not the same thing as the record
speed.
Normally there is some technique provided to permit access to extended
SCSI function on your SCSI board or chipset.
The Data rate controls how fast the SCSI controller talks to the SCSI
drive. CD-ROM drives (as well as
