You need to patch cdrom.c as well: if ((fp->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE) && !CDROM_CAN(CDC_DVD_RAM)) return -EROFS; > What can I do to help get this drive supported under 2.5/ide-cd? I'm tempted to say ide-scsi + sd, but that goes against my principles... It shouldn't be too much work to make ide-cd work gracefully. -- Jens Axboe - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
