|
|
Hi all.
I'm trying to get my LG 8160B 16x10x40 burner going under Gentoo.
I've got SCSI emulation and generic SCSI support compiled in the kernel.
The burner gets detected on boot as hdd and shares an IDE channel with my Liteon 52X reader which is hdc.
When I do a dmesg I get:
SCSI subsystem driverRevision: 1.00
scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
If I try cdrecord -scanbus I get:
cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open '/dev/pg*'. Cannot open SCSI driver.
I went looking around in my /dev and didn't see anything resembling a scsi device listed. No sr0, sg0, etc....
A kick in the right direction would be appreciated.
TIA

Try booting with "hdd=ide-scsi" added to your kernel options. (i.e. edit /boot/menu.lst and add it after root=/dev/hda3 or whatever) |

No joy.
I edited the menu.lst file and still get the cdrecord error message.

Yep.
Went looking around in /dev again and still nothing under /dev/scsi.
Both CD drives show under /dev/cdroms as cdrom0 and cdrom1, cdrom1 being the burner. _________________ Windows = a 32 bit extension to a 16 bit GUI on an 8 bit OS written for a 4 bit architecture by a 2 bit company who can't stand 1 bit of competition. |

Got it that time.
cdrecord -scanbus reports the burner on:
scsibus0:
0,0,0 0) 'HL-DT-ST' 'CD-RW GCE-8160B' '1.02' Removable CD-ROM.
Thanks for the help. I should have caught the "" thing. _________________ Windows = a 32 bit extension to a 16 bit GUI on an 8 bit OS written for a 4 bit architecture by a 2 bit company who can't stand 1 bit of competition. |
