Folks,
Does anyone know of a good FAQ for putting a SCSI CDRW into an otherwise IDE Linux box? Any recommendations for software, and other techniques? This is all new territory for me (SuSE 6.2, BTW).
Cheers, Laurie.

As far as I know the CD Writting HOWTO will cover what u need...as long as u have SCSI compiled in to ur kernel and you know what device number the CDRW has then you shouldn't have any problems! Or to put it another way...I've got an IDE CD Writter...and I had to use that HOWTO to set it up...SCSI emulation is currently the only way for IDE...so if its a true SCSI device I think you should have no problems what-so-ever setting it up. I recommend using cdrecord for writting the CDs. For making ISO images I use mkisofs, but apparently mkhybrid is better...I can't comment cos I haven't used it. Good luck
Brett
