<p><strong>Joey Winchester asked:</strong></p>
|
|
<p><strong>
|
|
I need to use the ide-scsi.o module, but NONE of the 'HOWTOs' help, they
|
|
just give the code to check 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Okay, my CD-RW's not
|
|
listed, so WHAT DO I DO?? The HOWTOs aren't helpful at ALL. So how can I
|
|
recompile the kernel to use my IDE drive as a CD-RW and NOT just a CD-ROM.
|
|
</strong><p>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>You need to give the kernel an option, to warn it that it
|
|
not only requires the hardware level driver (IDE CDROM in this case)
|
|
but also the IDE-SCSI interface driver. This applies just as much
|
|
if your ATAPI device is builtin, or attached via Cardbus (as mine is).
|
|
The easiest place to put this is in your /etc/lilo.conf:
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
<blockquote><code>
|
|
append="hdc=ide-scsi"
|
|
</code></blockquote>
|
|
<blockquote>If you have more than one kernel option, though, they have to
|
|
be in one big append statement. What will happen is that you'll get
|
|
some sort of warning message about a missing driver as the drive
|
|
initializes. Ignore it, your device should be able to read fine
|
|
without that. But, when you want
|
|
to write, then <tt>modprobe ide-scsi</tt> and your virtual SCSI host
|
|
will be established. After that the normal instructions for cdrecord
|
|
and all its brethren will work.
|

First, let me comment that I think TAG is exceptional. I stumbled upon it
|
|
by accident, and ended up reading every question and answer, and after this
|
|
email, will be going to look for previous months.
|
|
Anyhow, in reference to one of the questions asked about a firewall
|
|
(Firewall for a SOHO From Tom Bynum), you suggested a 3 legged Linux box to
|
|
do his routing / Firewalling. There is a free router / firewall called
|
|
FreeSCo (stands for FREE ciSCO) (http://www.freesco.org) that is essentially
|
|
a firewall on a floppy, with support for a DMZ. I uses (I believe) masq and
|
|
IPChains. Runs a mimumum of services, etc. You most likely already knew
|
|
about it, but I thought I'd pass this along (since the guy lives by your mom
|
|
and all).
|
|

|
|
<p>Have a good 'un.</p>
