[plug] /dev/cdrecorder error

[Simon Scott]

	Sorry, also the first one sounds like you dont have cdrecord
installed. Youre probably missing mkisofs etc as well.

	I would have thought that you couldnt install KonCD without these
dependencies. Perhaps your path or something is screwed?

	Is Suse an RPM based distro? Do as root "rpm -qa |grep cdrecord" and
see if its installed, if so "updatedb" followed by "locate cdrecord" will
tell you where it is. Some cd burning tools just use cdrecord if its in the
path, others (like xcdroast, which I would recommend) have these tools in
their own lib directory.

	As I said, the second problem sounds like a broken supermount setup.
Id need your /etc/fstab, /proc/scsi/scsi ,"ls -al /mnt" ,"ls -al /dev/s*"
and dmesg to have a guess at what's wrong.

	Subject:	[plug] /dev/cdrecorder error

	Recently I installed an LG cdrw as the secondary slave on my Athlon
800's IDE 
	drive (cdrom secondary master). I got the information from the SuSE
site on 
	how to run SCSI emulation and followed these instructions carefully
ending 
	with a reboot to commit the modprobe ide-scsi stuff. The boot
messages 
	indicated that the SCSI emulation went fine and all devices were
detected. 
	BUT: a) I can't get KonCD to burn

	Error, exit status: 2
	cdrecord: No such file or directory. No read access for ".       


	b) when I try to mount  the cdrecorder I get the following message;

	Error
	Could not mount device
	The reported error was:
	/dev/cdrecorder: Input/output error
	mount: I could not determine the filesystem type and none was
specified.

	I'm totally green to this cd burning stuff and don't know where to
turn for 
	the solution to this problem. Any tips appreciated.

	Sol
