it didn't work with my cdr as atapi, so i compiled my kernel (358) with scsi-emulation, scsi cdrom & generic scsi options set. it still detected my drive as atapi, so (in case the rpm was at fault :} ) i compiled xcdroast from tarball. it requested that i perform scsi-emulation! (after the kernel compile!) i'm stumped. any ideas? cfzeitler ===== : Do What Thou Wilt : : Shall Be : : The Whole of The Law :
