In the X-CD-Roast setup, I am unable to find my 52x Sony Reader. It does however, see the Sony CD-RWX160E.

Gnome, Hardware Browser, however, sees both CD Drives!

Help.

Thanks,

David

I believe that xcdroast only deals w/ scsi-emulated devices. I also see that you are using RH8... I think that will give you problems too, although you might be able to find a hack for that around.

OK are you using LILO or GRUB as a bootloader? Find the .conf file (lilo.conf or grub.conf depending on which one you are using) look through the file to find the line that says hdx=ide-scsi (where hdx is the sony cd-r/rw drive) then add this line beside it hdx=ide-scsi (where hdx is the 52x cd rom drive). My cd-r/rw is hdc (Secondary Master) & my cd-rom is hdd (Secondary Slave). so now it should look like this "hd_=ide-scsi hd_=ide-scsi" (again the _ is for their respective drives) now upon reboot both cd-rom & cd-r/rw drives should be emulated as scsi and seen by X-CDRoast. this worked for me on my RedHat 7.2/Mandrake 8.2 computer.

Good luck
