I'm not quite sure what you mean, but you can use an IDE CD Burner with cdrecord and other burning software. However, if the drive is showing up as hd[x], it isn't being connected through the ide-scsi module. You need to specifically disable the kernel from connecting to that drive with the ide module, and then load ide-scsi (or build it into your kernel). At that point, the drive will show up as sd[x] and you can use it normally. If you type: cdrecord -scanbus You should see your drive listed. If you don't, something is wrong. -Josh On Apr 14, 2004, at 10:45 AM, Gina Minks wrote: > Can a cdr use a device named hd[x] and use scsi emulation, or does it > have to use a sdc[n] device? > > > If it has to use a sdc[n] device, why does it show up as using a hd[x] > device in /etc/sysconfig/hwconf? > > Thanks > -Gina > > _______________________________________________ > Discuss mailing list > Discuss at blu.org > http://www.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss > -- "Fist in the air in the land of hypocrisy" - RATM
