Setting up IDE CD burner

How to setup an IDE CD Burner

with Red Hat 7.0

  1. First modify your lilo.conf file to include append="hdc=ide-scsi" just below the label=linux line and a line that looks something like initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.17-14.img before your root=/dev/hda2 line.


  2. Next go to the directory /boot. You need to remove map and also create an initrd image (mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.2.17-14.img 2.2.17-14) and then run lilo -v.


  3. Finally add alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi to your /etc/modules.conf and reboot your computer.


  4. To verify that it worked type cdrecord --scanbus and you should see your CD Burner listed. Typically it is the first device (dev=0,0 with cdrecord).


  5. Now you can run either command line burning (with cdrecord) or graphical burning (with something like xcdroast).
