I'm just wondering if my cd-writer works with linux, I have the ide-scsi module loaded yet cdrecord -scanbus returns...
# cdrecord -scanbus
Cdrecord 1.8.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2000 Jörg Schilling
cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you are root.


and my ide-scsi module IS loaded for sure

after typing lsmod
ide-scsi 7304 0


anyways, does anyone have any ideas? I tried upgrading cdrecord and still I had no luck.

Did you add the required line to lilo.conf and rerun lilo? hdx=ide-scsi You may want to verify the syntax by searching around here or reading the CD-WRITING HOWTO.

All CD writers should work in Linux as it's just a matter of setting up the scsi emulation and modules correctly. Mine always work.
