Can't open SCSI driver! Note that I am using the linux-image kernel, not a kernel compiled from a linux-source kernel package. Apparently the linux-image kernel is not compiled with scsi emulation. > > What device does your CD-ROM/DVD normally use? /dev/hdc I can mount it as /media/cdrom0 and read data files from a cd The output of less /proc/ide/hdc/driver is ide-cdrom version 4.61 > > Is your optical drive accessed through the normal ATAPI driver or through > ide-scsi (SCSI emulation for IDE devices)? > > Is SCSI compiled into your kernel--at least as a module?
