Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org This I believed may have been asked before, but I am new to this list and I hope I can get it resolved. I have a IDE CDR as hdb and a IDE CDRW as hdc, no problem. I know in order to use cdrecord I must use ide-scsi, no problem as I had this exact same setup working with cdrecord when this was a 2.2.x system. Ok, I upgrade the hard drive, hda, and install 2.4.5 kernel from Slackware 8.0. I always install just what I need,and install things as I need them, usually from source. That's how you learn. Ok, I need cdrecord working. No problem, I've done this before. Get the cdrtools-1.10.tar.gz and have at. builds no problem. Build kernel with scsi emulation, put the append command in lilo.conf, do the modules.conf thing and link /dev/cdrom to /dev/scd0 and /dev/cdrw to /dev/scd1. Reboot and I can mount both /dev/cdrom and /dev/cdrw as ro filesystems. lsmod shows: Module Size Used by isofs 18032 1 (autoclean) sr_mod 13024 1 (autoclean) sg 21408 0 (autoclean) ide-scsi 7904 1 ide-cd 26432 0 cdrom 27520 0 [sr_mod ide-cd] scsi_mod 81904 3 (autoclean) [sr_mod sg ide-scsi] 3c59x 24224 1 Ok, I try cdrecord -scanbus, and get he following warning: Cdrecord 1.10 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2001 J?rg Schilling Linux sg driver version: 3.1.17 Using libscg version 'schily-0.5' scsibus0: cdrecord: Warning: controller returns wrong size for CD capabilities page. 0,0,0 0) 'E-IDE ' 'CD-ROM 50X ' '50 ' Removable CD-ROM 0,1,0 1) 'HP ' 'CD-Writer+ 9100 ' '1.0c' Removable CD-ROM 0,2,0 2) * 0,3,0 3) * 0,4,0 4) * 0,5,0 5) * 0,6,0 6) * 0,7,0 7) * Where did the Warning: come from? Trying to burn from xcdroast causes an error box stating the same and refuses to write. I did everything like the cd writer how-to specifies, just like I did before, I think? Did I miss something? I google searched and found plenty of postings with the same problem, but couldn't find any with the answer. One thing I did notice that they all involved 2.4.x kernel. Is that the problem?
