cdrecord doesn't work
I can't get cdrecord to work. "cdrecord -scanbus" gives me the following:
cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open SCSI driver. cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you are root. Yes I am root. |
are you using linux 2.4 or 2.6??
do you have scsi emulation enabled?? |
I'm using the 2.4.26 kernel and how do I enable scsi emulation?
|
For what it's worth..
I just resolved a similar error. I tried using cdrecord in the following way.. cdrecord -v dev=0,0 MyFile.iso And the error that appeared was... cdrecord: No such file or directory. Can not open '/dev/pg0'. Can not open SCSI driver. So I reversed the two parameters and it worked.. cdrecord -v MyFile.iso dev=0,0 And it ran. I was able to burn. I hope that helps you. |

if you use just the 0,0 you will get an error, add that 3rd zero and see if you are still getting that error. |
Thanks for your response. Respectfully, I never use a third zero. Always two zeros.
dev=0,0 In my post I said I was able to avoid the error and successfully burn by reversing the order of the dev value and the name of the iso file in the cdrecord command. But I'll keep what you've shared in mind. Always learning something new about Linux. |
Hey i got a problem w/ cdrecord as well, however, my does know that there's a burner (cd-burner) but it writes @ 0X
does anyone know anything about that? |
as far as scsi emulation goes, try typing "modprobe ide-scsi" and then try cdrecord. If that doesn't work you would need to recompile your kernel with scsi emulation support.
You would have to modprobe every time you reboot this way, to makie the changes more permanent and for more info about what I just said see: http://www-106.ibm.com/developerwork.../l-cdburn.html |
