1. Everything works on pinstripe/beta5 and DOES NOT work on rc1/pinstripe2/beta6. 2. I have a Memorex CRW-1622 cd recorder on /dev/hdh. 3. I specify append="hdh=ide-scsi nousb" in /etc/lilo.conf. 4. I get the following: [gene@chaos gene]$ su -p Password: [root@chaos gene]# insmod ide-scsi Using /lib/modules/2.2.16-21smp/scsi/ide-scsi.o [2]+ Done /usr/sbin/rhns_register -q [root@chaos gene]# cdrecord -scanbus Cdrecord 1.9 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2000 Jvrg Schilling cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open SCSI driver. cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you are root. [root@chaos gene]#
could you run this again for me, with the following command strace -otracefile cdrecord -scanbus and append the tracefile to this bug report?
sounds like a kernel problem to me, but we need more information. we need to see the outputp of 'lsmod' on both installs, and a 'lspci -v'.
File is being attached from strace -otracefile cdrecord -scanbus Funny. I tested cdrecord on two other "systems" (one a vmware virtual and the other a Dell OptiPlex) -- everything was fine on them. Just my "home" system that is having problems. Gene

OK, I have no idea what is going on but as of today it is working. The only change made was a screwed up append= in /etc/lilo.conf which had nousb as NOUSB and I was getting error messages during bootup. Here is the "current" append= append="hdh=ide-scsi nousb" Anyway, I am closing this.
