I have a Sony spressa USB cdrw that works with the cdrecord command as a scsi device. It is not listed in the HARDWARE.TXT file for 4.2-release even though it worked with 4.1.1 also. I guess it is just lucky that it works, and unlucky that yours doesn't. Or maybe mine works because it can act as a little more generic scsi device while yours needs a complete driver of it's own written? I don't know. The spressa comes up in my dmesg as: umass0: OnSpec USB Atapi, rev 1.00/0.06, addr 3 umass0: Get Max Lun not supported (STALLED) cd0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 cd0: Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device I have another USB device that comes up as just ugen in dmesg too, and it doesn't work. Once again, does anybody know where I should send information to have the spressa included in the list of supported devices? Sorry I couldn't give you a positive response, Zherdev.
