Trying to install scsi emulation on FC4, Help!

Ryanjon7 · 04-29-2006, 12:40 PM

I am trying to get x-cd-roast 0.98alpha15 to work on my FC4 installation. I went to the website, tried to follow the instructions on how to, but didn't work. It won't find my DVD/CD RW RAM drive. I entered

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 ro root=/dev/hda6 hdc=scsi hdd=scsi

in /etc/grub.conf this did not work. The x-cd-roast website confused me as to exactly what command do I enter into what file and in what line, to get it working.

Please help, thanks

You don't need ide-scsi emulation in 2.6.x kernels and also the above command is wrong. The correct (for kernel-version <=2.4.x) is:

Code:

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 ro root=/dev/hda6 hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi
