Hi,
It's a nightmare to install this guy, at least for a beginner like me.
I do
$insmod paride
$insmod bpck6
$insmod pcd
and then I can use it doing
$mount -t iso9660 /dev/pcd0 /mnt/cdrom/
1. But what about having it detected automatically? I noticed that in
/etc/modules.devfs there is no mention of pcd device.
2. What can I do to have it scsi-emulated in order to use cdrecord?
$insmod pg ; cdrecord -scanbus
Cdrecord 1.10 (i586-mandrake-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2001 J�rg Schilling
Using libscg version 'schily-0.5'
scsibus0:
0,0,0 0) 'TEAC ' 'CD-W58E ' '1.0A' Removable CD-ROM
0,1,0 1) *
0,2,0 2) *
0,3,0 3) *
0,4,0 4) *
0,5,0 5) *
0,6,0 6) *
0,7,0 7) *
But TEAC is my CD reader included in my Dell Inspiron 2500 laptop. However,
it references the bacpack drive. When I setup xcdroast it mentions only the
TEAC name but I did the setup with the bacpack values and I made it run.
xcdroast reads a cd from the backpack (named TEAC in the program) and writes
the track img to the disk. So far it seems that write capability would work
(the writing begin but I have currently no available CD :))
(By the way, when I start xcdroast from root I get these messages :
** WARNING **: Installation problem? No set-uid bit on /usr/bin/mkisofs
** WARNING **: Installation problem? No set-uid bit on /usr/bin/readcd
** CRITICAL **: file eazel-theme-draw.c: line 1640 (draw_flat_box):
assertion `height >= -1' failed.
)
3. How can I have my TEAC recognized in some way and then the backpack
recognized with its real name?
Should I try to pass hdc=ide-scsi to the kernel?
Hope that helps. It would be nice to have a wizard to set that up for the
newbies (the doc is a nightmare because there is no one-step information in
that case).
Regards,
marc
