Hello Up to now I had one hd and one dvd writer and everything worked fine. Now I have added a second hd and a dvd rom drive:
/dev/hda hd /dev/hdb dvd writer /dev/hdc hd /dev/hdd dvd rom A short test with another OS (no, it's debian woody ;-) without ide-scsi seems to do fine with all of them. The trouble starts when I want to use ide-scsi to burn cds or dvds. This time I boot sid (but I don't think this makes the difference) with 'hdb=ide-scsi' as kernel parameter in grub menu.lst (it's a 2.4.24 kernel). I can mount the dvd writer as /dev/scd0, but I cannot mount /dev/hdd. I tried /dev/scd1, which (to my big surprise) mounts the same drive as /dev/scd0. I have tried appending 'hdb=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi' as kernel parameters, and a couple of other things, but had no success yet. I must be doing something wrong... So before I post error messages of everything I tried please tell me what kernel parameters (and syntax) I should try in grub. BTW: I do not really care if /dev/hdd (the dvd rom) runs with ide-scsi or without, as long as it works. Thanks a lot for any help, Robert Epprecht. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
