cdrecord problem

[David Mandala]

You'll need to RTFM the info grub file. I think you need to put it on
the same line as the kernel image.

Cheers,

> I use lilo also so I cannot answer your question with GRUB. So why am I replying? Because when I received this error while setting up my burner I went back through the kernel config and noticed that I had not turned on SCSI emulation. I had everything setup in the scsi portion but in the ATA/IDE/MFM/RLL support menu there is a submenu IDE, ATA and ATAPI Block devices, in that submenu you will see SCSI emulation support. Make sure that it is enabled.

Usually CDROM is linked to a device (in your case it is probably /dev/hdb or something like that.) Make sure that that when you are done it says /dev/sc0 or whatever scsi device you want to map the CD-RW drive to.
