problems with my CD-RW unit
I have a problem with my CD-RW unit on a Slackware 9.1 system. I can't mount a CD. In order to make the CD-RW work I compiled the kernel with SCSI Emulation, configured lilo with "hdc=ide-scsi"; I think the problem is in fstab:
Code:
/dev/hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0 Code:
root@localhost:~# cdrecord -scanbus Thanks! |
You didn't mention if you made modules and did the stuff necessary to load the modules for it, which is my method as it seems to be most recommended.
lsmod (edited for my system): Code:
root@uilleann /dev # lsmod # CD burning copying ripping info Is it configured and what is the device? Command this to find out: cdrecord -scanbus Adding an IDE CD-Writer to Linux Linux DVD HOWTO CD Writing HOWTO Burning CDs on Linux # Burn an ISO to disk cdrecord -v speed=<burning speed> dev=<your device> /path/to/foo.iso # Burn from disk to disk cdrecord -v dev=<your device> speed=<burning speed> -isosize /dev/cdrom # ISO information isoinfo -i -d /dev/cdrom # Generate an ISO from a directory. mkisofs -vrTJUV "Label" -o foo.iso /path/to/directory # Generate an ISO from a CD dd if=/dev/cdrom of=foo.iso # cdparanoia - search for a drive with reporting of autosense: cdparanoia -vsQ # Rip a complete audio CD with cdparanoia cdparanoia -B "1-" Linux MP3 CD Burning mini-HOWTO # Convert mp3 to wav with lame for i in *.mp3; do lame --decode $i `basename $i .mp3`.wav; done # Burn a CD from wav files cdrecord -v -audio -pad speed=<burning speed> dev=<your device> /path/to/*.wav # Erase a CDRW cdrecord -v dev=<your device> speed=<burning speed> blank=fast |
try sr0 instead of scd in fstab.
Then sometimes if you create a shortcut from the desktop in kde the contents will not open if that is so then edit the shortcut with your favorite text editor and then change default to auto under fs type. That works for me anyway. hth Rob |
I recompiled the kernel with sr_mod and it works fine now.
Thanks! |
fwiw, though, you do not need to mount anything in order to burn. (you couldn't mount a blank disc anyway!)
I have an older dvd-rom drive and a cd-burner, and I very rarely mount anything in the cd burner for this reason. |
