Yes, you don't need CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI. That was for when SCSI emulation was used on IDE to read block devices. It's deprecated. > #cat /boot-config-2.6.15-rc2-mm1 | grep SCSI Try grepping for BLK. In particular (this is from 2.6.14.2, but it probably hasn't changed much): # # SCSI support type (disk, tape, CD-ROM) # # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD is not set # CONFIG_CHR_DEV_ST is not set # CONFIG_CHR_DEV_OSST is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR is not set # CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG is not set # CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SCH is not set I don't have SCSI, so these aren't set for me. If I had to take a guess without actually running config and looking at the help, I would say you need CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR. > > It seems that udev is working if you have the device /dev/sr0 and > > symlink /dev/dvd.

How about file /dev/sr1? Is it actually a block device? -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
