-Howto setup an ATAPI CD-RW/DVD+-RW recorder on Debian/Ubuntu
-============================================================
-
-(for Debian with kernel 2.4, continue reading below)
-
-Kernel 2.6.*
-============
-
-If you have just one CD writer in your computer, CD-writing should work out of
-the box. There should be a symbolic link /dev/cdrw which points to your actual
-CD-Writer's device (e. g. /dev/hdb). If the link is not present (eg.  the
-system is not using udev/devfs) or if you want to use a different device as
-default, you can configure the device in /etc/wodim.conf:
-
-  CDR_DEVICE=/dev/hdd
-
-would configure the default device to be /dev/hdd, i. e. the slave
-device on the secondary IDE bus.
-
-You can always override this default setting with wodim's "dev"
-option:
-
-    wodim dev=/dev/hdc ...
-
-Only users part of the system group "cdrom" are able to write CDs.
-If you wish to allow non-root users to write CDs then add your users to the
-cdrom group ("adduser user cdrom") and let the user completely logout and
-re-login.
-Note: with certain kernel versions wodim can fail with this message:
-"wodim: Operation not permitted. Cannot send SCSI cmd via ioctl"
-In this case it still does need the suid bit - please send patches if you have
-identified the reason of that problem.
-
-Kernel 2.4.* (for 2.5/2.6, see above)
-============
-
-Where we start:
-   Linux: Kernel 2.4.20-bf2.4 (Debian package kernel-image-2.4.20-bf2.4)
-   Distribution: Debian Woody 3.0r2, i386
-   Devices: one CDRW-Writer, one CDROM-drive, both ATAPI
-
-1. Become root, try "grep hd.: /var/log/kern.log" to find out where your
-   ATAPI-devices are connected to (hd?-names).
-2. Edit your boot configuration file, eg. /etc/lilo.conf if you use
-   lilo or the batch-file if you boot via loadlin.
-3. Find a line where you can append additional kernel parameters, eg.
-   "append=" in lilo.conf or the loadlin-line in the batch file.
-4. Append sth. like this: "hdb=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi max_scsi_luns=1"
-   The hdX-parameters defines devices that should be mapped to SCSI
-   latter. You may do it with non-writers too, since the emulation layer
-   is almost complete. Or omit some so the devices will use their
-   native drivers (eg. ide-cd).
-5. Save the file, reinstall the bootloader (ie. running "/sbin/lilo")
-6. Call "modconf" in a console or xterm, enter the section 
-   "kernel/drivers/scsi", load "sg" and "ide-scsi"
-7. Reboot Debian, watch while booting, you should see a line like this:
-   "Detected scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0".
-   Your old ATAPI devices virtually don't exist any longer, you cannot refer to
-   /dev/hd* as CDROM drives. Use the SCSI equivalents instead, /dev/sr*.
-8. Become root, setup devices:
-      cd /dev
-      MAKEDEV sg scd
-      ln -s scd0 cdrom # NOTE: or cdrw, first check which drive is here
-      ln -s scd1 cdrw  # NOTE: see above, maybe cdrom
-   Check the new SCSI settings:
-      wodim -scanbus
-   Setup wodim's environment - edit /etc/wodim.conf:
-      CDR_DEVICE=cdrw
-      cdrw=1,0,0        4       8m
-      cdrom=1,2,0       0       0m
-   Insert the right values, the fields are described in the manpage
-   of wodim. Alternatively, you may use these values as
-   wodim-parameter or take a frontend with an own configuration
-   scheme, then you don't need to modify /etc/wodim.conf.
-   The columns must be separated by tabs.
-9. It's done! Insert a CD and try "wodim -v -toc". To create your first CD-ROM, try:
-   
-   mkisofs -v -r -J /directory/to/be/written | wodim -v -dummy -
-
-   (read wodim(1), "man 1 wodim", for details)
-
-10. If you wish to allow non-root users to write CDs, you must give them 
-    permissions to do so. Set suid-root permissions on the executable,
-    then add your users to the cdrom group ("adduser user cdrom") and
-    let the user completely logout and re-login.
