You must run modconf in your console and load the modules you need. From the menu that will popup you must choose the modules ide-scsi, sg, sr_mod (you will find them under kernel/drivers/scsi). After that edit your /etc/lilo.conf and add the line append="hdx=ide-scsi max_scsi_luns=1 hdy=ide-cd" after the line root=/dev/hda3. Save and run lilo. hdx is your cdburner and hdy is your cdrom or DVD if you have it of course. Reboot. Now your cdburner will become a "scsi" device so his name will change. Open a console and run: dmesg | grep scsi and look for the line that will say Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0 . . . Edit /etc/fstab and look for the line that points to your cdburner (/dev/hdx) and change to the value sr0. You'd probably want to change the mount point as well. Point your cdburner to /mount/cdrw or /cdrw. Save and exit. Go to / and make a directory called cdrw. Reboot and that should do it. You might want to check this fine howto: http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/peripherals/cdrw.html, because I have probably left out some steps. If you cannot find the modules you need, you'll have to build'em up. ;-)) HTH, Jernej Zidar -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
