CD Burning
   
1/11
 

For IDE CD burners to work in Linux, SCSI emulation is used to fool the operating system into thinking it's a SCSI drive.
This step is automatically performed if the CD-R was present during installation.
The messages log shows what happens when Linux boots up:

  1. The ide-scsi module is loaded
  2. The drive is detected as a CD-R
  3. SCSI emulation is applied to the CD-R
