My kernel configuration file
OK, I tried recompiling the kernel with SCSI, SCSI generic, IDE-SCSI, and IDE-CD-ROM support all modularized. I still had the same problem. The system complains about how it can't locate module block-major-11 while booting. If I add alias block-major-11 ide-scsi to /etc/modules.conf, it loads all of the necessary modules without error messages, but I still can't access the drive. I'm stumped. Attaching the new .config file. Created attachment 100258 [details]
My kernel configuration file; with SCSI, SCSI generic, IDE-SCSI, and IDE-CD-ROM support all modularized.
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/ |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113 Description of problem: If I compile the ide-scsi driver into the kernel instead of as a module, my CD-RW drive comes up as an invalid block device. I'm attaching my kernel configuration file. Here is the info from /proc/scsi/scsi (same whether driver is modular or not): Attached devices: Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: RICOH Model: CD-R/RW MP7040A Rev: 1.1j Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 And also: /proc/ide/hdc/driver ide-scsi version 0.93 /proc/ide/hdc/model RICOH CD-R/RW MP7040A /proc/ide/hdc/media cdrom /proc/ide/hdc/settings name value min max mode ---- ----- --- --- ---- bios_cyl 0 0 1023 rw bios_head 0 0 255 rw bios_sect 0 0 63 rw current_speed 34 0 70 rw init_speed 34 0 70 rw io_32bit 1 0 3 rw keepsettings 0 0 1 rw log 0 0 1 rw nice1 1 0 1 rw number 2 0 3 rw pio_mode write-only 0 255 w slow 0 0 1 rw transform 1 0 3 rw unmaskirq 0 0 1 rw using_dma 1 0 1 rw Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-source-2.4.22-1.2188.nptl How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use my configuration file (it was made with menuconfig, I didn't hand edit) 2. make menuconfig, save configuration 3. make dep clean 4. nohup make modules >modules.out & 5. nohup make bzImage & 6. (wait until successful compilation) 7. make modules_install install 8. reboot and choose the new kernel from the grub menu 9. try to access the ide-scsi CD-RW drive. Actual Results: I could not access anything on this CD-RW drive using this custom kernel. I could not play audio CDs, or mount data CDs, nor write CD-Rs. Expected Results: The exact opposite.
