Very Computer

Anyone know where I can find either

  (a) sr_mod.o, scsi_mod.o compiled against Linux kernel 2.2.12-20 ?

or

  (b) sr_mod.c, scsi_mod.c not compiled but current with Redhat 6.1 ?

FYI:  Redhat 6.1 does not come installed
with sr_mod.o, scsci_mod.o modules.  To
work around this, my /etc/conf.modules
looks like this:

        # Deal with IDE/ATAPI CD-Recorder.
        options ide-cd ignore=hdd
        alias char-major-97 pg
        alias scd0 sg
        pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi

The `pg' module is mentioned only because
`cdrecord -scanbus' was complaining without it.

In addition, I modified /etc/lilo.conf to
include the `append' line, as per the
CD-Writing HOWTO:

        image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.12-20
                label=linux        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.12-20.img
                read-only        root=/dev/hda10
                append="hdd=ide-scsi"

CD reading/writing works fine, but
CD mounting is sometimes broken.  Eg,

        mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom

is broken for the Redhat 6.1 CD.  Why?
