It is fairly clear how to burn CDs with a 2.6 kernel, but I wonder what is the correct way to configuring Debian Sarge to read/write CDs with the default 2.4.27-2 kernel.
Chris pointed out in his nice article, that:
Under the 2.4 series kernel - to be able to use an IDE CD burner we were forced to use SCSI emulation (via the kernel module ide-scsi).
However, I am still not sure what is the best way to configure a clean Debian install to use the CD-R functionality.
Yes, I know about The Linux CD-ROM HOWTO, but I feel it is quite generic and I am not so experienced to know if everything therein is valid for Debian.
Thank you all in advance for any hints or more profound advice!This article can be found online at the Debian Administration website at the following bookmarkable URL:
