Hello,
I run a RedHat 7.3 box with an Adaptec SCSI card and a VXA-1 tape backup
unit. I also have a IDE LG CD-RW on this system as well.
The problem is, although the system reads CD's from the drive just fine, it
will not burn to it. My system does see my tape drive just fine, and works
great.
So, in my efforts to get the CD-RW piece working, I added the following to
GRUB:
####################
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-3)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-3 ro root=/dev/hda3 hdc=ide-scsi
initrd /initrd-2.4.18-3.img
append="hdc=ide-scsi"
####################
Doing this allows my system to recognize the burner and allows me to burn
CDs. However, I lost my Tape Drive, here is cdrecord --scanbus
####################

As you can see, my tape drive is no where to be found. My ideal world would
be for these to both be up and running at the same time.
Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott
