Bill & Steve,
Sorry about the long delay in replying. Been pretty busy here for the
last few days. Tried your suggestions including the syntax in
lil0.config and in fstab. Still doesn't work. Yes, I ran "lilo"
after each change and I do know the cdrecorder works because it did
when I was using RedHat. This is driving me crazy. Every time I do a
"mount /dev/cdrecorder" I get the "unknown device" reply.
Any other ideas?
To all the Sluggers
Anybody else have any ideas? Here is the original problem as posted:
Trying to get my ide cdrecorder as a scsi emulated device so that I
can burn cd's
Here is the latest update of what I did as outlined from a Suse
document.
# 1 - Went into lilo.conf and added the statement
append = "hdc=ide-scsi"
# 2 - Did a "/sbin/lilo"
# 3 Went into /etc/init.d/boot.local and added this statement
"/sbin/modprobe ide-scsi"
# 4 - Created a softlink "ln -sf /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrecorder"
# 5 - Went into fstab and checked to make sure the line about the
cdrecorder was correct.
"/dev/cdrecorder /cdrecorder auto ro,noauto,user,exec
0 0"
When I try to mount the cdrecorder as root or as user, I get the
message "/dev/cdrecorder:unknown device"
Is the line in fstab correct? The soft link exists, and a cat
/proc/modules shows the ide-scsi module loaded. a cat /proc/scsi/scsi
shows no devices, but I assume that won't show until the cdrecorder is
mounted. Could it be that scd0 is not the right module? I have a USB
camera that loads as a scsi device but it is sda1.
Can anyone help me figure out what is wrong here ?
Bob S.
