A trick is: cdrecord dev={sg|pg|ATA...} --scanbus
I've got a ATAPI (ide-scsi) so I added the following file
/etc/modules.d/ide-scsi
options ide-cd ignore=hdb # tell the ide-cd module to ignore hdb
alias scd0 sr_mod # load sr_mod upon access of scd0
#pre-install ide-scsi modprobe imm # uncomment for some ZIP drives only
pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi # load ide-scsi before sg
pre-install sr_mod modprobe ide-scsi # load ide-scsi before sr_mod
pre-install ide-scsi modprobe ide-cd # load ide-cd before ide-scsi
and did a "modules-update" command.
Also in my /boot/grub/grub.conf something of the form:
title=Gentoo Linux (Gentoo Sources 2.4.20) - GrSec
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/bzImage2.4.20-gentoo-r10-d1 root=/dev/hda5 hdb=ide-scsi
Make sure the kernel contains a ide-scsi module and the ide-cd is as a module
too (as previously mentioned). Tip when compiling the kernel edit
/usr/src/linux-{version}/Makefile and add an addition identifer to
EXTRAVERSION so that you can have a number of kernel of the same kernel
version with different options.
Since I'm using devfs the et/etc/devfsd.conf contains:
REGISTER ^scsi/host.*/bus.*/target.*/lun.*/generic PERMISSIONS
root.cdrw 660
LOOKUP ^sg0$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink
scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/generic sg0
REGISTER ^sg0$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink
scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/generic sg0
UNREGISTER ^sg0$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL unlink sg0
I'm sure the above lines aren't totally correct but they seem to place a
/dev/sg0 entry which is needed.
And finally make sure the user has write permission the /dev entry group
"cdrw" in my case.
Hope this helps.
