If you have multiple host adapters, connect your CD writer and CDROM drive to the first one. Set the SCSI-ID of this devices to a value between 0 and 6. See the documentation of your host adapter and your CD writer for further information.
If your host adapter's bios can be configured you may setup `Disconnection Enabled' for the device. Set this option to `Yes' for the following devices: DynaTek CDM240, DynaTek CDM400, Microboards PlayWrite 4000, Microboards PlayWrite 2000, any model of Mitsumi, Olympus and Optima, Plasmon CDR 4400, Procom PCDR-4X, any model of Smart & Friendly except of the CDR 4006, any model of Sony, Yamha CDR100 and Yamha CDR102.. Set it to `No' for other ones. If you will get problems with the fixation of CD-Rs you should try to switch this option.
CDDesigner will install the 'gzdevd' daemon after configuring the first device. Therefore it makes an entry into your /etc/rc.local. This entry will be removed automatically after deleting the last device. You should never remove this entry manually.
Important: Configuring any other devices than CD-ROM drives or CD writers may crash your system or damage information on local harddiscs. |
