I'm far from being an expert, but my system works, and no one else is answering you, so I'll have a go. I hope someone more knowledgeable will step in if they see me misleading you. Have you read the document at http://www.leewardfpga.com/cdrw.html ? It applies specifically to RedHat 6.1 & 6.2 and I found it a useful adjunct to the CD writing HOWTO. > > This is what I've already know: > > - cdrecord only works with SCSI commands. > - for IDE drives I need to load ATAPI, or IDE-SCSI emulation. > - RedHat 6.2 supports this module, so I have put > append="hdb=ide-scsi" on my lilo.conf and run lilo You have presumably checked that your cd burner really is on /dev/hdb. > - This is my modules.conf file: > > alias scsi_hostadapter megaraid > alias scsi_hostadapter1 ncr53c8xx >... > alias scsi_hostadapter2 ncr53c8xx > alias scsi_hostadapter3 ncr53c8xx What is all this in aid of? Do you have any real scsi components attached to your machine? That would presumably complicate matters. The document above suggests the line alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi which works for me. > options ide-cd ignore=hdc What is /dev/hdc? Or is either this or the "hdb" above a typo? > pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi I don't know whether you need this. I've got modprobe ide-scsi in my /etc/rc.d/rc.local and it seems to do the job.
