I have a new CDRW I've been trying to get working for a couple of months now. Working with autoloading the modules anyway. I've tried following the CD-Writing HOWTO for setting up modules.conf with no luck. Currently my modules.conf has: options ide-cd ignore=hdc # tell the ide-cd module to ignore h alias block-major-11 sr_mod # load sr_mod upon access of scd0 pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi # load ide-scsi before sg pre-install sr_mod modprobe ide-scsi # load ide-scsi before sr_mod pre-install ide-scsi modprobe ide-cd # load ide-cd before ide-scsi And lilo.conf has: append="hdc=scsi" Of course, also tried hdc=ide-scsi with same results. Now, if I try something like ``head /dev/scd0'' I see the following in dmesg: SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 Uniform CD-ROM driver unloaded And the following in /var/log/ksymoops: 20011024 214049 start /sbin/modprobe -s -k -- block-major-11 safemode=1 20011024 214050 probe ended Now, if I take the command from that: /sbin/modprobe -s -k -- block-major-11 I get the following: thune:~# /sbin/modprobe -s -k -- block-major-11 Warning: loading /lib/modules/2.4.12/kernel/drivers/cdrom/cdrom.o will taint the kernel: no license Warning: loading /lib/modules/2.4.12/kernel/drivers/ide/ide-cd.o will taint the kernel: no license ide-cd: ignoring drive hdc Vendor: PHILIPS Model: PCRW804 Rev: 2,1 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 32x/32x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray ksymoops has: 20011024 214923 start /sbin/modprobe -s -k -- block-major-11 safemode=0 20011024 214923 start modprobe ide-scsi safemode=0 20011024 214923 start modprobe ide-cd safemode=0 20011024 214924 probe ended 20011024 214924 probe ended 20011024 214924 probe ended And dmesg shows: CSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 ide-cd: ignoring drive hdc scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices Vendor: PHILIPS Model: PCRW804 Rev: 2,1 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 32x/32x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.12 So, it appears to me that the autoloading should work. But it's not. What am I missing?
