Re: [LUG] My CD burner is b0rked :-(



Disclaimer: I'm a newbie, don't take this as Gospel ;)

I've been advised previously that HardDrake isn't exactly great at
accuracy so the best indicator is what the program or a shell says :)

Would I be right to think 0.1.0 would map to Primary Master on the IDE
bus and 1.1.0 is Secondary Master?  If that were the case does that mean
that 0.2.0 is Primary Slave?

BTW I'm assuming you changed the jumper setting for the drive from
Secondary to Primary if necessary?

Kind regards,

Julian
