<h3><i>Tips & tricks for KOnCD</i></h3>
<p><i><b>Installation</b></i><br>
</p>
<p> <i>- ./configure<br>
- make<br>
- make install (as root !)</i></p>
<p><br>
<b><i>ATAPI CD-Writer</i></b></p>
<p>The ATAPI standard describes method of sending SCSI commands over IDE<br>
with some small limitations to the "real" SCSI standard.<br>
For this reason ATAPI-SCSI emulation is the native method of<br>
supporting ATAPI devices.</p>
<p>Many people ask why I use ATAPI-SCSI emulation.<br>
The use of the naming convention "ATAPI-SCSI emulation" is a<br>
litle bit misleading. It should rather be called:<br>
"SCSI host adapter emulation"</p>
<p>Make your kernel ready for ATAPI CD-Writers:</p>
<p>1) run 'make menuconfig' or 'make xconfig', then choose "load config<br>
from alternate file" to restore the original configuration</p>
<p>2) In "Block Devices", disable "IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM<br>
support" and enable instead "scsi emulation"<br>
In any case, you need to disable generic IDE/ATAPI CDROM support in<br>
order to make ATAPI SCSI emulation working !</p>
<p>3) in "SCSI support" enable "SCSI support", "SCSI
CD-ROM support" and<br>
"SCSI generic support", everything directly in the kernel or as module</p>
<p>4) compile, install kernel/modules, reboot. Now, if everything went<br>
fine, your CDROM units should show up with a message like:<br>
"hdb: HP CD-Writer+ 7100, ATAPI CDROM drive - enabling SCSI emulation"</p>
<p>5) run "cdrecord -scanbus" to make sure cdrecord can see the unit
and<br>
talk to it. Or use the Setup of KOnCD to see the devices !</p>
<p>Don't forget that now -all- of your CD drives are seen as -SCSI- units<br>
by all programs (/dev/scd0 or /dev/sr0 etc.), so you might want to relink<br>
/dev/cdrom to the proper scd<n> / sr<n> in order to get xcdplay
or whatever<br>
to work again.</p>
<p>On SuSE Linux the atapi to scsi emulation is an modul. You don't need recompile
your kernel !<br>
Load the modul as root:</p>
<p><i>modprobe -k ide-scsi</i></p>
<p>This should be work ! Show the output of cdrecord and verify, if your devices
are displayed (as root):</p>
<p><i>cdrecord -scanbus</i></p>
<p><br>
<b><i>Your permissions</i></b></p>
<p>Make sure you have enough permissions to cdrecord !<br>
To make this, type at the console 'as root':</p>
<p><i>chown root /usr/bin/cdrecord<br>
chmod 4711 /usr/bin/cdrecord</i></p>
<p>'/usr/bin/cdrecord' is the default path. When you don't know, where cdrecord
is<br>
located, type 'whereis cdrecord' ! Then you have the complete path of them !</p>
<p>You must have enough permissions to the cd-reader and cd-writer devices:<br>
At least read permissions to the cd-reader and write permissions to the<br>
cd-writer device ! Better you set read AND write permissions to the writer !<br>
That is '/dev/scd0' or so. You must set this 'as root' with 'chmod' !</p>
<p>Look at the README and FAQ file in the KOnCD package !!!<br>
</p>
<p>Have fun with it !<br>
