I had similar problems with my cdrw and the latest kernel (gentoo sources 2.4.20). I solved it compiling ide-scsi and ide-cd as modules, and then loading them in this order: modprobe ide-scsi modprobe ide-cd My kernel parameters are the same as yours. There has been a long thread on this topic last week. -- Arturo di Gioia web: http://www.ing.unitn.it/~digioia/ PGP public key: http://www.ing.unitn.it/~digioia/files/adg_gpg_pub.asc Instructions for using my e-mail address: http://netiquette.info/ Please don't send me Word or PowerPoint attachments: http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
