If its a CD-R you need to edit /etc/lilo.conf. add the line append="hdx=ide-scsi" where x is your drive letter ( a primar master, b primary salve, etc), and then rerun lilo /sbin/lilo It helps to edit /etc/rc.d/rc.local and add the line /sbin/modprobe ide-scsi and /sbin/modprobe sg Then do mkdir /mnt/cdrw and ln -s /dev/scd0 cdrw Also add this to /etc/fstab /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 user,exec,dev,suid,rw,noauto 1 1 Now you should be able to mount the cdrw for reading data, play CDs and write CDs. A good program for burning CDs is gcombust, look on freshmeat.net for it. Best of luck. Hope I didnt leave anything out.
