Yes. You screwed it up! DON'T have your regular CDROM using scsi emulation and don't load the stuff as a module. Compile ide-scsi into your kernel and put in scsi generic support. Then pass the ide-scsic parameter to the kernel. Look at the CD-Writing HOWTO for how to set this up right. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cheryl Homiak" <chomiak@chartermi.net> To: <blinux-list@redhat.com> Sent: Sunday, March 31, 2002 7:51 PM Subject: problem with cdrom in ide-scsi for use with abcde and/or cdparanoia > I now have both a cdrom and a cdrw on my machine.
