burning CDs with an IDE CDR drive

burning CDs with an IDE CDR drive

[douglas irving repetto]

hi,

has anyone managed to burn CDs using an ATAPI/IDE drive? i've just
installed RH6.0, and i've found several docs that mention that it's
possible if you use IDE-SCSI emulation. but i can't seem to figure out how
to get it to work.

thanks,

douglas

Douglas,

	I've recompiled the emulation in and Xcdroast tells me I haven't.
So I'm just burning in "you know what!" till the waters settle a
little in MY kernel :(

Check the CD-Writing HOWTO, which you can get from any LDP mirror
such as http://www.linuxdoc.org

Basically if you compile IDE SCSI emulation into your kernel and load the
ide-scsi module you should be in business.

(and this is probably not the best forum for this because it has little
to do with sound)

Yes, I've done it. However, note that the emulation doesn't work if you
already HAVE a SCSI card in there. Also, this isn't really related to
sound as it's mostly for burning data CDs -- you probably want the
cdrecord mailing list.

Xcdroast will do a sanity check on your settings and tell you what you
did wrong. :)

Re: burning CDs with an IDE CDR drive

I use a mitsumi IDE CDR...

on my default turbolinux install, i didnt have to do a thing... 

i installed; fired up xcdroast & did my thing... well turbolinux is a 
redhat based distribution...

on my slakware box, i do it the old way:

recompile the kernel without ATAPI CDROM,  with scsi-emeu, 
scsi-generic & off she goes...

Re: burning CDs with an IDE CDR drive

[Bryan Scaringe]

Here's what I did, from memory:

I have IDE CD Drives:  a CD-ROM and a CD-RW
/dev/hdc is the CD-ROM
/dev/hdd is the CD-RW

Compile the kernel with:
	SCSI Support: built in
	SCSI CD-ROM support: built in
	SCSI Generic Support (sg): built in
 	SCSI Emulation (ide-scsi): as module
	IDE-CDROM support (ide-cd): as module
	LOOPBACK device: as module

I chose to build ide-scsi as a module so that I could still
use my CD-ROM as an IDE device.  Here's what I added to 
conf.modules:
	options ide-scsi ignore=hdc
	options ide-cd ignore=hdd

and to lilo.conf:
	append="hdc=ide-cd hdd=ide-scsi"

I need these since whichever of the modules (ide-scsi or ide-cd)
loads first, will attempt to control both drives.  The second
module gets squat.  If you don't mind having both drives under
SCSI emulation, then don't build ide-scsi support at all, and
build SCSI emulation directly into the kernel.

Again, this is from memory.  The thing that screwed me up
was that I was building some of the items like SCSI-generic
as modules, when support needed to be there during booting
process.  Loading sg as a module won't work.  The CD-Writing
HOWTO is (I believe) wrong in this case.
