 |
|
i am trying to use some cd-burning software (any), any any of the auto-detection seems to depend on the existant of /dev/pg*, but i do not have this.
looking in /etc/modules.devfs it seems the /dev/pg is an alias to /dev/sg seen here:
| Code: |
# SCSI generic
probeall /dev/sg scsi_hostadapter sg
alias /dev/sg* /dev/sg
alias /dev/scsi/*/generic /dev/sg
alias /dev/pg /dev/sg
alias /dev/pg* /dev/sg
|
am i missing something in my kernel? do i have to setup a symlink manually? I have scsi cd-rom support compiled for my card directly into my kernel (not a module) and the cdrom works.
what could i be missing? |

no, my cdrw is a scsi cdrom, and my /dev/scsi directory is filled with the appropriate things, namely:
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc (a scsi harddrive with id #0)
and
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target3/lun0/cd (my scsi cd-rw)
i also have the /dev/cdromn directory setup properly with:
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 and /dev/cdroms/cdrom1 (cdrom0 is ide)
my question is why dont i have /dev/pg*? |
