Hey all,
I haven't been able to get my CD-RW drive working under Linux yet and hoping for
a few helpful hints. I'm running Mandrake 6.0 (2.2.9-27 via RPM) with the
default cdrecord (1.82?) and xcdroaster from the distro. When I run 'cdrecord
-scanbus' I get the error " ". When I start up xcdroaster I get the message
that the SCSI generic module (sg) isn't loaded into the kernel. When I do an
'insmod sg' it says it's already loaded and lsmod confirms this (it has
[autoclean ?] in the right column). By looking at the CD-Writing Mini-HOWTO the
Mandrake 2.2.9-27 kernel seems to have all required components either loadable
as modules or compiled into the kernel. Am I missing something?
I've tried running under my id and as root and neither work. Do I need to mount
the device before it can be found?
Any help much appreciated as this is the last thing I need to get working before
I can wipe Windoze off my hard drive...thanks!
