use my IDE CDROM as a SCSI

[gcb]

my IDE CDRW drive is also identified as a SCSI drive...i'd like to make my CDROM drive do the same so i can to on the fly cd recording...anyone know how to do this?

I'm not sure, but I think the scsi emulation only applies to recordable CD devices, not the CD-ROM

Actually, if I remember the cdrecord docs correctly, the SCSI emulation is actually part of the ATAPI specification. So I think you can enable SCSI emulation with any ATAPI CD drive.

EDIT: Here's (http://www.fokus.gmd.de/research/cc/glone/employees/joerg.schilling/private/man/README/README.ATAPI) a URL for that doc. It says "the ATAPI standard describes method of sending SCSI commands over IDE
with some small limitations to the "real" SCSI standard."
