Hrm. OK, here's one I don't understand...
I am trying to follow the directions on the website at
http://www.whitem.demon.co.uk/idescsi_idx.htm
for getting a cd-burner to work under Mandrake 6.0 using scsi emulation.
I have also seen this posted a time or two, with the same answer, but
neither the man pages or online looking seems to give a different answer.
At the stage in the directions where you alter the lilo.conf file to add a
parameter to pass the kernel, the following is a sample from my lilo.conf
file:
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=lin
root=/dev/hda5
read-only
append="hdd=ide-scsi"
However, on reboot, my kernel flashes by the following message:
[david@pandora david]# dmesg|more
Linux version 2.2.9-27mdk ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version
pgcc-2.91
.66 19990314 (egcs-1.1.2 release)) #1 Mon Jun 14 16:44:05 CEST 1999
Detected 434328240 Hz processor.
ide_setup: hdd= -- BAD OPTION
ide_setup: ide-scsi -- BAD OPTION
What syntax error am I commiting, and what is supposed to be going on
here? I can load the ide-scsi module, and I think scsi emulation is built
in to the kernel, but i still get this on startup:
scsi : 0 hosts.
scsi : detected total.
What's with the errors?
Later,
David
