I am a rank newbie, running the now-defunct Corel variant of Debian
Linux. I have a HP "CD-writer plus" IDE burner. I have dinked around
with it, know how to append my lilo.conf file to get it working, but
have held off on doing so because of a number of nuisances, like
having 9 cdrom drives display, and having to configure software to
look for a SCSI CD rom instead of an IDE. If I was in the market to
purchase a new burner, I would spare myself a major PITA and go with a
SCSI burner.
