Hi,
I have A Ricoh 7060A CD-RW which worked fine under 7.2. I upgraded to
8.0 using this drive to read the CDs. cdrecord --scanbus sees the drive
and HardDrake says it has two devices (ide: /dev/hdc - with unknown
vendor [Vendor does appear on the device line], and SCSI: /dev/scd0 -
with Ricoh as vendor). If I cd to /mnt/cdrom, I get an IO error message
(with no useful details). This mount point is set up to use supermount.
I umount-ed /mnt/cdrom and created a /tmp_mnt point and did a 'mount -t
iso9660 /dev/scd0 /tmp_mnt' and I get a message saying unknown device. I
tried this with /dev/hdc as well, but this just tells me that I should
use the scsi device.
The drive is detected, but (the driver?) doesn't work :-(. How could
that be? The Ricoh is just a standard MMC/ATAPI CD device. I haven't
check if cdrecord can write to the drive. Any advice would be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Nick.
