Dear Sir or Madam,
I am running a Pentium 233 machine with 64 megs of ram and 2 4.5gig =
SCSI drives and a Philips Omniwriter 26A 2x/8x External CD-RW on an =
Adaptec 1542C SCSI controller. I am using FreeBSD release 2.2.8.
I am having no luck whatsoever getting my cdr to write. I can use it =
as a CDRom just fine. I use device cd0c and mount it using mount_cd9660 =
and it works perfectly. However, I can't for the life of me get it to =
write CDs. What happens when I try using CDRecord 1.6.1 is it ALWAYS =
says "SCSI Device not configured".
I have no idea how to get past this. I couldn't figure out how to use a =
worm or rcd device either. I did happen to find a web page that had a =
lot of information about writing CDs with cdrecord on freebsd and even =
mentioned my exact CDr... but i could not get it to work following his =
directions. I just keep getting the same "SCSI Device Not Configured" =
message... the web page is: http://www.best.com/~spadger/CDR-main.html
If anyone could PLEASE help me out here I will be forever grateful. =
I've been trying to get this to work for months with no avail. I've read =
all the manpages and web pages i could find. I asked in #freebsd and =
#linux on IRC and checked the www.freebsd.org website... None of this =
has any mention of my problem.
If you could please write me back soon I would grately appreciate it. =
Thank you for your time.
=
Eric Weiss
