There is yet another way to do the conversion. Some MP3 files apparently give both <command>mpg123</command> and
<command>madplay</command> trouble with decoding. The <command>lame</command> encoder, which has a decoding mode, seems
to handle difficult cases very well (<command>lame</command> can be found at <ulink url="http://www.mp3dev.org/mp3/">http://www.mp3dev.org/mp3/</ulink>) :

<sect>How do i know the BIOS number for my SCSI disks
<p>
<em>
The contribution from Marc Tanguy (mtanguy@ens.uvsq.fr), 21 Jul 2001
</em>
<p>
Actually, it exists two ways to know it :
<p>
If you have an adaptec scsi card (2940u2, 29160, 39160), you simply
use the 'diagnose' mode. It must be activated in the scsi card BIOS.
Then you just have to wait and see something like :
<verb>
... ID - LUN - Vendor - Product - Rev - Size - Sync - Bus - HD#
... 0 - 0 - QUANTUM - ATLAS10K2 - DDD6 - 17GB - 160 - 16 - 80h
... 1 - 0 - QUANTUM - ATLAS10K2 - DDD6 - 17GB - 160 - 16 - 81h
... 2 - 0 - IBM - DDRS - DC1B - 4GB - 80 - 16 - 82h
... 3 - 0 - IBM - DNES - SAH0 - 9GB - 80 - 16 - 83h
|
The values we want are here -------------------------------------
</verb>
<p>
If you don't own an adaptec card (which is bad luck), you have two
know what is the 'booting' disk (usually ID 0, but not necessary, it
must be define in the scsi card BIOS) where LILO is going to be found
and start : this is the first disk so it has number 0x80,
then it's very simple, the BIOS follows the IDs.
<p>
By exemple :
<verb>
ID 0 -> boot -> 0x80
ID 1 -> empty
ID 2 -> disk -> 0x81
ID 3 -> disk -> 0x82
</verb>
or
<verb>
ID 0 -> disk -> 0x81
ID 1 -> empty
ID 2 -> disk -> 0x82
ID 3 -> boot -> 0x80
ID 4 -> disk -> 0x83
</verb>
This part doesn't care at all of what is installed on the scsi drives.
<p>
** Ok, but NT must be the first disk to boot, so i want it in 0x80, but i
already have LILO and a full ext2 only drive on 0x80 and my NT drive is
in 0x83. How can i 'swap' linux and NT ?
This a very easy : you just have to tell BIOS that NT drive is now 0x80
and the Linux drive is 0x83.
<verb>
other=/dev/sdd1
label=nt
map-drive = 0x83
to = 0x80
map-drive = 0x80
to = 0x83
</verb>
This change will produce and warning :
<verb>
Warning: BIOS drive 0x8? may not be accessible
</verb>
but if you know what you are doing it will run without problem.
I used it on this configuration which has a Red Hat Linux 7.1 and a Windows
2000 Pro :
<verb>

other=/dev/sdd1
label=nt
map-drive = 0x83
to = 0x80
map-drive = 0x80
to = 0x83
</verb>
<p>
** I just plugged a new scsi drive, and now LILO refuse to boot, what's
going on ?
When you plug a disk, you must be careful with the IDs. If you add a drive
between two already plugged disks the BIOS numbers are changed :
<verb>
Before ----> After
scsi id - - BIOS id scsi id - - BIOS id
ID 0 - disk - 0x80 ID 0 - disk - 0x80
ID 1 - empty ID 1 - new disk - 0x81
ID 2 - disk - 0x81 ID 2 - disk - 0x82 !!
</verb>
If you change the BIOS ids, you have to re-evaluate them.
