SCSI Emulation
I have an ATAPI CD-burner and my burning program (X-CD Roast) warns me that SCSI emulation would be better. How can I enable/install this?
Cheers, Dan |
try ::
modprobe ide-scsi as root.. |
It couldn't find this command...

a) you have to be root
b) if you are root, and if /sbin is not in your path, then you have to type :: /sbin/modprobe ide-scsi |
OK, that is working now, but it doesn't return anything. Does this mean it is not installed? If so, how do I install it?
Cheers, Dan |
as root do
lsmod and see if it's there then try your burner again . |
I get returned the lines (amongst others)::
ide-scsi 11984 0 scsi_mod 106200 1 [ide-scsi] ide-cd 35196 0 (autoclean) cdrom 33472 0 (autoclean) [ide-cd] Yet my burning software still complains that I am not using SCSI emulation. What am I doing wrong? Dan EDIT: Added extra, possibly relevant lines. |
you need to pass the parameter to the kernel. If you use grub edit your grub.conf, add hdX=ide-scsi to the line where it specifies the kernel then do a reboot.
for example: kernel /boot/vmlinuz ro root=/dev/hdc3 hdh=ide-scsi where /dev/hdh is my burner if u use lilo I think you u add "append=hdX=ide-scsi", i don't use lilo so not exactly sure. |
