You are correct that recent cdrecord can use devices without ide-scsi, but if you are running both 2.4 and 2.6 your really avoid a lot of config changes to just use ide-scsi all the time. And for other ATAPI devices ide-scsi is still easier than rewriting applications to use the new interface. SCSI-only code works with fewer portability issues. -- bill davidsen CTO, TMR Associates, Inc Doing interesting things with little computers since 1979.
