Hi pat.
Although your cdrw is ide, not scsi, you can convert it to be seen as scsi by
implementing scsi emulation in your kernel. This does involve you or somebody
recompiling your kernel and there are several options that need to be compiled
in to make this work. try looking at www.linuxdoc.org; hit enter on "howtos" and
that should put you right at "howto indec" or something like that. Enter on that
and there will be a list of categories; enter on the one for cdroms and you will
see both a cdrw and cdrom howto. The cdrw howto could in my opinon be better,
but it does tell you what needs to be implemented in your kernel for your cdrw
to be seen as scsi by programs that need that.
If you have trouble with this let me know, and I will try to write a more
detailed response later.
