second, i'm running FC3 (well, FC2 with absolutely everything updated to FC3) on my inspiron 8100, and i'd like to set it up to access the ATAPI CD-RW drive (/dev/hdb) without the historical SCSI emulation.
# cdrecord dev=/dev/hdb ...
What does a 'cdrecord dev=ATAPI -scanbus' yield for the CD-ROM device number? Suppose it yields device 0,0,0. You then burn to it with 'cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 .......'
This does NOT work if ide-scsi emulation is loaded.
