Just upgraded to RH7.1 from 7.0 and am having a problem accessing my
CDROMS.  All had been well under 7.0,

When I execute mount /mnt/cdrom (or cdrom1, my burner, I get this
message:

wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom,
       or too many mounted file systems
       (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
       ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)

My impression, based on what follows, is that the 2.4.2 kernel directly
implements scsi emulation for ide devices, but perhaps a lister will
know this for sure?

I had previously modified my lilo.conf and modules.conf to make cdrecord
work properly.  The entries which follow reflect this.

Herewith the particulars:  (my appologies for the length)

Kernel 2.4.2-2

My lilo.conf:

boot=/dev/hdb5
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
default=linux
message=/boot/message
linear
 
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-2
        label=linux
        read-only
        root=/dev/hda6
        append="hdd=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi"
 
other=/dev/hda1
        label=Windows98

My fstab:

/dev/hda6 / ext2    defaults 1 1
/dev/hdb5 /boot     ext2    defaults 1 2
/dev/hda7 /home     ext2    defaults 1 2
dev/hda5  swap      swap    defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0  /mnt/floppy  ext2 owner,exec,dev,suid,rw,noauto 0 0
none      /proc     proc    defaults 0 0
none      /dev/pts  devpts  gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/hda1 /mnt/vfat vfat user,owner,exec,dev,suid,rw,conv=auto,uid=500,gid=500,auto 1 2
# Next line added 6/24 to automount the Win D Drive
/dev/hdb1  /mnt/ddrive  vfat 
user,owner,exec,dev,suid,rw,conv=auto,uid=500,gid=500,auto 1 2
# 4/22 changed cdrom1 to match cdrom exactly and
# changed vfat fs passnoo from 1 to 2, per fstab man page.
# 5/18 Changed vfat permission from w to rw.  This was intended to fix
# the write prob with mutt.
/SWAP   swap    swap    defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom  /mnt/cdrom  iso9660 owner,exec,dev,suid,noauto,ro,kudzu 0 0
/dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 iso9660 owner,exec,dev,suid,noauto,ro,kudzu 0 0

My modules.conf:

alias eth0 3c59x
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
# added 2/19  jpv
alias sound-slot-0 es1371
# added next lines 4/16/00 jpv
# per CD-Writing HOWTO
install ide-scsi
alias scd0 sr_mod                       # load sr_mod upon access of
scd0
alias scd1 sr_mod                       # load sr_mod upon access of
scd1
pre-install sg       modprobe ide-scsi  # before sg, load ide-scsi
pre-install sr_mod   modprobe ide-scsi  # before sr_mod, load ide-scsi

Some messages from the kernel message log:

Apparently in response to mount /mnt/cdrom:

Apr 29 10:57:08 CV150607-A kernel: ide-scsi: hdc: unsupported command in
request queue (0)

Apr 29 10:57:42 CV150607-A kernel: isofs_read_super: bread failed,

At boot time, initializing the CDROMs:

Apr 29 10:51:57 CV150607-A kernel: Kernel command line: auto
BOOT_IMAGE=linux ro root=306 BOOT_FILE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-2

drive
Apr 29 10:51:58 CV150607-A kernel: hdd: CD-RW CRX100E, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM

And a bit later in messages:

Apr 29 10:52:09 CV150607-A kernel: scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation
for IDE ATAPI devices
Apr 29 10:52:09 CV150607-A kernel:   Vendor: LG        Model: CD-ROM

Apr 29 10:52:09 CV150607-A kernel:   Vendor: SONY      Model: CD-RW
CRX100E    Rev: 1.0m
Apr 29 10:52:09 CV150607-A kernel:   Type:   CD-ROM

Thanks very much to any and all on this.
