Not Able To Burn CDs or DVDs in Virtual Machines with Linux 2.4 Kernel Supported Guest Operating Systems
Details
CD or DVD burning without ide-scsi is not supported. All attempts to burn using
cdrecord dev=ATAPI
will fail to burn data to a CD or DVD.
Solution
For burning CDs or DVDs from Red Hat EL3 virtual machines (or any guest operating system VMware supports that features a Linux 2.4 kernel):
Boot the kernel with the
hda=ide-scsi
kernel option.
Run
cdrecord -scanbus
.
The CD-ROM or DVD-ROM should be listed now and the media should burn successfully.
