I'll try in this forum...

Hello everybody,

I can't use cd burn app , is it a problem of emulation ? I use DSL 2.1RC3b.
Is emulation already made in the last kernel of DSL ?

I use an external cdrw (cdrw400 philips). with ide pcmcia ,

the pc card control say this :

status :
function 0 : busy, bat deat

info :
PRODID_1="FREECOM" ;
PRODID_2="PCCARD-IDE"
PRODID_3="REV836"  

if i can burn with my cdrw in linux i can leave windows...please

Is this a USB drive?

Supposedly the USB external 400 series is supported in Linux.

Download the gcombust.dsl extension from the mydsl repository and give it a try.

Hmm... Maybe the pcmcia boot cheatcode will work.

Try booting with:

dsl ide2=0x180

or

dsl ide2=0x180 nopcmcia

and see if it is found.

at start cardmrg : ide-hda (emulation ok I think)
after no found

I found on the net that it need to be update-module , write that ide-scsi is hda on my pc :

/etc/conf.modules

alias scd0 sr_mod
alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
options ide-cd ignore=hda

but even in root can't edit this file, "read-only"...
how ? how ?
