mounting 2 ide-scsi devices /dev/cdrom and /dev/cdrom1 issue
 

I am unable to mount /cdrom1 only /cdrom mounts but never anything else even though both soft links are pointing to the /dev/sdc0 and /dev/sdc1 respectively

Below is the listing for symbolic links in /dev/ and the fstab. It seems that cdrecord -scanbus sees both but ...

When I do "mount /cdrom" then it will mount one drive either the HP or the YAMAHA depending on which scd is linked to cdrom. If scd0 is lined to cdrom then it will mount HP, if scd1 is linked to cdrom then it will mount the YAMAHA, but it will never mount /cdrom1. It always gives an error: mount: mount point /cdrom1 does not exist

Any and all ideas would be greatly appreciated?

lilo.conf has the :append="hdd=ide-scsi hdb=ide-scsi"

and modules.conf has these additional lines:

options ide-cd ignore=hdb # tell the ide-cd module to ignore hdb
options ide-cd ignore=hdd
alias scd0 sr_mod # load sr_mod upon access of scd0
alias scd1 sr_mod
pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi # load ide-scsi before sg
pre-install sr_mod modprobe ide-scsi # load ide-scsi before sr_mod
pre-install ide-scsi modprobe ide-cd # load ide-cd before ide-scsi

and commenting out

pre-install ide-scsi modprobe ide-cd # load ide-cd before ide-scsi

in modules.conf fixed the probelm.

HP DVD Writer 100j '1.37' mounts as Removable CD-ROM
 

Debian 3.0r1
Linux athon-j 2.4.18-bf2.4 #1 Son Apr 14 09:53:28 CEST 2002 i686 unknown

This is what happens when I run cdrecord -scanbus (look below)
It appears that the DVD writer is only seen as a regular CD-ROM
I am not sure how I should modify the /etc/fstab to get this to work, and if I should?

My main problem is that I am unable to record, this is what i get when i run :

cdrecord.mmap: Format option not implemented in this version.

Obviously the DVD appears only as a normal CD-ROM to "cdrecod" tool.
I am not sure what is all this stuff about "cdrecord.mmap". I thought that cdrecord was supposed to be capable of writing to DVD??

Any and all comments/solutions are appreciated.
