When I used RH7.3 I had trouble with cd burning until I realised that I needed to add to my GRUB file the following:-

 

hdc=ide-scsi

 

I think in LILO you need a line as follows:-

 

append = "hdc=ide-scsi"

 

After making the appropriate change try typing “cdrecord –scanbus”

 

If the devices show up you should be set to go.

Subject: Ide Cdrom startup configuration

 

Hi all, I am trying to setup a cd-rw drive so I can write cd's. I believe that this has to be configured to use the SG driver and also prevent the ide driver from claiming it. Exactly where & how is this done. I am running RH7.3. The disk is referenced as hdc and the other cdrom as hdd.

and both have a cdrom alias.e.g. cdrom and cdrom1 at the moment.

any help appreciated.

regards Paul
