BINGO John!!

I once again have my CDRW in my hardware list. Once again it appears twice, once as hdb and once as scd1. I opened xcdroast and it too sees the Samsung CDRW drive.

Now I must ask if I should leave both entries for the CDRW in my hardware list? I checked mount points and the CDRW is mounted as scd1. Is that as it should be?

Thank you so much, John! I am forever in your debt.

Here's where it says that lilo set up scsi emulation properly.

Here is where it says that hdb is in fact your cdrw drive

/dev/hda6 / ext3 defaults 1 1
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hda8 /home ext3 defaults 1 2
none /mnt/hdb supermount dev=/dev/scd0,fs=auto,ro,--,user,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,umask=0 0 0
none /mnt/floppy supermount dev=/dev/fd0,fs=vfat,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,sync,codepage=850 0 0
/dev/hda1 /mnt/win_c vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,codepage=850 0 0
/dev/hda5 /mnt/win_d vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,codepage=850 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda7 swap swap defaults 0 0

Now, make this your fstab, save it, and reboot. Afterwards, you should
have scsi-em working like a charm!!

I am anxious to see how this turns out, please let me know as soon as
possible. :)
