Assigned to dledford Works without problems here - are you sure you used the right device numbers and names? I have a very similar setup - in my case 24x ATAPI CD-ROM and 4x2x2 ATAPI CD-RW
- and admit that I was puzzled at first with how to get them both set up.
The working hardware setup here that allows me to write to the CD-RW using
cdrecord is as follows:
hda = Hard drive
hdb = CD-ROM
hdc = Zip
hdd = CD-RW
To get them all working as required, I have to specify in /etc/lilo.conf that
hda and hdb use the standard IDE driver, hdc uses the IDE-Floppy driver and hdd
uses the IDE-SCSI driver. I also need to have all three drivers hard compiled
into the kernel, as otherwise the specifications are ignored.
With this setup, the drives are actually referred to as follows:
Hardware Device Software
~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~
hda Hard disk hda
hdb CD-ROM hdb
hdc Zip-250 hdc
hdd CD-RW sr0 <=== Note this
Note the changed reference for the CD-RW as hdd does NOT work with this setup.
