[techtalk] Setting up my Mitsumi 4802TE CDRW under Redhat Linux 6.0

I found out how to set it up. The next question I hope is a little easier.
If I have the line append="hdb=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi" only my cdreader is
able to get mounted. Mounting the writer will only show what's on the
reader. However if I leave out hdb then although the writer is recognized
the cdreader is nowhere to be found. How can I set it up so that both can be
seen by the system? I had hdb as /dev/sr0 and hdc as /dev/sr7 at first (when
the writer couldn't be accessed). Now I just have hdc as /dev/sr0 but again
hdb (my reader) is nowhere to be found. I can't access it under hdb either.
Where could it be, or how can I set it up so it will work properly. By the
way thanks for the reply :) Oh my kernel is 2.2.15.

                 Again thanks!
