This is my note I made to add scsi-emulation to the DVD
I may be of some help.
XCDROAST
TO ADD DVD/ROM UNDER SCSI-EMULATION
so that xcdroast can recognise it.
Note the scsi lettering will be dependent upon
how you set your DVDROM and WRITER , master and slave.
Modify : /etc/lilo.conf,
append="devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi nobiospnp"
Modify /etc/fstab
/dev/scd1 /mnt/cdrom auto user,iocharset=iso8859-15,umask=0,
exec,codepage=850,ro,noauto 0 0
/dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom2 auto user,iocharset=iso8859-15,umask=0,
exec,codepage=850,ro,noauto 0 0
So that programmes like Xine and Ogle can use DVD
Set SCSI device
Create Symlink,
root&localhost root]#ln -s scd0 /dev/dvd
or
root&localhost root]#ln -s scd1 /dev/dvd
according whichever is your DVD device.
To remove the symlink,
]#rm /dev/dvd
then go to desktop icons and alter device= in properties:-
DVD-ROM /dev/scd0 Writer /dev/scd1
depending upon which is master and slave.
