DeeJayBump Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 (edited) 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 menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw disk=/dev/hdd bios=0x81 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" vga=788 read-only image=/boot/vmlinuz label="linux-nonfb" root=/dev/hda5 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append="devfs=mount hdc=ide-scsi acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda6" read-only image=/boot/vmlinuz label="failsafe" root=/dev/hda5 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append="devfs=nomount hdc=ide-scsi acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda6 failsafe" read-only other=/dev/hda1 label="windows" table=/dev/hda other=/dev/hdd1 label="windows2" table=/dev/hdd map-drive=0x80 to=0x81 map-drive=0x81 to=0x80 other=/dev/fd0 label="floppy" unsafe 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/cdrom2 supermount dev=/dev/hdc,fs=auto,ro,--,user,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,sync,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. Edited February 25, 2004 by DeeJayBump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris z Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 (edited) 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! Chris Edited February 25, 2004 by chris z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeJayBump Posted February 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 chris z- Thanks. That did the trick. I appreciate the assistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmpatrick Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 You should also change your fstab entry for hdc. Since it is now running under scsi emulation you should change hdc to scd1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeJayBump Posted February 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 You should also change your fstab entry for hdc. Since it is now running under scsi emulation you should change hdc to scd1. pmpatrick- When I re-ran the K3bsetup as root, K3b added that to the fstab. Thanks for the tip.

growler Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Good eyes, Growler. I removed the comma. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieJohn Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Hello Growler. They should also replace the = sign they have between the ide=scsi in the part of <hdb=ide-scsi>. Seems I've got sharp eyes also (sometimes) ;) John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 OK, fixed that as well. I can't believe I missed it! :woops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germ Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 This problem will keep recurring until... (1) K3B uses IDE natively and/or.. 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aRTee Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 It is kernel 2.6 that does that, not k3b.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
