K3B / Enabling SCSI emulation

Recommended Posts

Okay, I followed the step by step instructions in the FAQ here:

 

http://www.mandrakeusers.org/index.php?showtopic=6665

 

K3B now sees my reader (DVD Drive) without displaying the error message about enabling SCSI emulation, however now my Writer (CD-R drive) is no longer seen by K3B.

 

Details: Mandrake 9.2, W98SE, dual-boot, LILO

 

DVD Drive is dev/scd0 or dev/hdb or dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd

CDR Drive is dev/hdc or dev//ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd

 

My /etc/lilo.conf reads:

 

boot=/dev/hda

map=/boot/map

default="linux"

keytable=/boot/us.klt

prompt

nowarn

timeout=100

message=/boot/message

My /etc/fstab reads:

 

/dev/hda5 / ext3 defaults 1 1

none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0

/dev/hda7 /home ext3 defaults 1 2

none /mnt/cdrom supermount dev=/dev/scd0,fs=udf:iso9660,ro,--,user,sync,iocharset=iso8859-1,ide-scsi 0 0

none /mnt/floppy supermount dev=/dev/fd0,fs=ext2:vfat,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,sync,umask=0,codepage=850 0 0

/dev/hda1 /mnt/win_c vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,codepage=850 0 0

/dev/hdd1 /mnt/win_c2 vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,codepage=850 0 0

none /proc proc defaults 0 0

/dev/hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0

 

So, can anyone walk me through getting K3B to see my CD-R drive and correct this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for reading.

you have a comma seperating your scsi emulated drives..........

 

here's what yours looks like now.......

 

image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="linux"
root=/dev/hda5
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=mount hdc=ide-scsi, hdb=ide-scsi acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda6 splash=silent"

 

open your lilo.conf file & edit it to remove the , (comma) from between where it says hdc=ide-scsi(no comma here but leave the space between them)hdb=ide-scsi

 

after that, in terminal, as root run........

 

lilo -v

 

then reboot.

 

EDIT you'll have to rerun your k3b setup after rebooting too!

This problem will keep recurring until...

 

(1) K3B uses IDE natively and/or..

 

(2) some mod corrects this line in the static FAQ.

 

hdc=ide-scsi, hdb=ide=scsi

 

... who is listening

the latest k3b does use ide natively. I'm burning both CDs and DVDs with no scsi emulation. Depending on the version, you may need to upgrade cdrecord. etc.
