Message-ID: <3ED9042C.4030504@yahoo.com> (raw)
A fully-functioning ide-scsi is extremely important. The application
cdrecord and its derivatives require a SCSI interface to work. I don't
know of any other CD-R/RW recording application in common use on Linux.
Many distributions add ide-scsi boot parameters when they discover an
IDE CD-R drive. Even though the newest development versions of cdrecord
along with the newest versions of kernel 2.5 do not require ide-scsi,
the installed base is enormous. This will represent a significant
barrier to widespread adoption of 2.6 if currently installed versions of
cdrecord with currently configured boot parameters must be updated.
