Just make sure that you have the correct "append stanza in your lilo.conf or grub. Then rerun lilo -v to install with the changes.Just bought and installed a pioneer dvr-105 (dvd-r/rw burner). I've installed it as /dev/hdc.
Two issues:
1)
In xcdroast it only appears as an atapi device, rather than available as emulated scsi, unlike my plextor cdrw which appears as both.
I tried to remedy this with adding 'hdc=ide-scsi' to the append line in /etc/lilo.conf but no change. Am I supposed to edit /etc/modules.conf ? This is what I already have in modules.conf:
probeall scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi ataraid probeall usb-interface usb-uhci alias eth0 eepro100 above snd-emu10k1 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-slot-0 emu10k1 options bttv radio=0 card=9 gbuffers=4
2)
The second problem is actually using the dvd burner. I believe cdrecord-2.01-0.a16.1mdk supports dvd burning, and I am using it. But xcdroast fails to either burn anything onto a dvd-rw, or to blank it. No way I am making dvd-r coasters until I am sure it works, at which point I hope not to make coasters anyway.
Advice/assistance very much welcomed
Which version of Mandrake are you using, I have ML 9.1 and there is a program cdrecord-dvdhack-2.0-2.2mdk, this version include a basic DVD support.
