I have been playing around with my usb cdwriter for a while now and here's my problem:

I can read from the cdrom but I can't write to it, here is what my fstab entry looks like:

Code:
/dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0/cd    /mnt/usbcdrom   iso9660         ro,noauto,user          0 0


I have all of the proper scsi emulation stuff compiled into the kernel, and all of the proper usb stuff complied into the kernel alot (I assume because I can read from and mount it).

Here's the problem, the output of cdrecord -scanbus (as root) looks like this:
Code:
root@wakko scott # cdrecord -scanbus
Cdrecord 2.01a05 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2002 Jörg Schilling
cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open '/dev/pg*'. Cannot open SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you are root.
cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=help'.


Now here's where it get's weird.... I was reading this : https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=32009&highlight=cdrecord
and it was talking about using this line to detect cdroms throught atapi.

Code:
root@wakko user1 # cdrecord -scanbus dev=ATAPI

Also, under my /dev directory I have neither a sg0 or a pg0, I think the answer is to make my writer show up as /dev/sg0. What do I have to put in my /etc/devfsd.conf to get it to show up like that?

Thanks for any input.

OK I guess I didn't read that other thread carfully enough.... I just ran :

Code:
xcdroast -f ATAPI:/dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0/cd


And it got detected and burned ok! That's a bit odd though because I didn't think that a usb device could be used as a ATAPI.

O well...
