Need help! I'm trying to put all the code necessary for burning cds into
modular form instead of having them directly in the kernel since I don't burn
cds that often so it makes sense. However, now it simply doesn't want to play
ball. I followed a howto on linux.com, compiled, fiddled with the conf.modules
file and installed. On rebooting, the usual "SCSI devices..." message didn't
appear but I thought that fair enough since I was doing it with modules. Then
I couldn't mount the cdr drive even though I had done what I thought I needed
to do to get the modules loaded on demand. I ran the linux.com script to load
the modules and it said yup (or close enough). I tried writing, it said nope.
More literally, it said :
[ross@ross cd-temp]$ cdrdao write --device /dev/sgb --speed 4 new.toc
Cdrdao version 1.1.3 - (C) Andreas Mueller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
ERROR: Cannot open "/dev/sgb": Device not configured
ERROR: Cannot open SCSI device '/dev/sgb':
ERROR: Please use option '--device bus,id,lun', e.g. --device 0,6,0
ERROR: Cannot setup device /dev/sgb.
I used to just leave out the device option and it would write to
/dev/cdrecorder and everything was hunky-dorey, now it doesn't even like the
actual device. I've also got a SCSI card which runs my
(in-the-process-of-snuffing-it) Zip drive.
Here's my conf.modules as well in case that helps :
#alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
#alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
#pre-install plip modprobe parport_pc ; echo 7 > /proc/parport/0/irq
#post-install supermount modprobe scsi_hostadapter
alias eth0 3c509
options ide-cd ignore=hdd
alias scd0 sr_mod
pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi
pre-install sr_mod modprobe ide-scsi
pre-install ide-scsi modprobe ide-cd
Please help.
Ta in advance,
Ross
