Should this be placed before or after the bootable partition config?

I don't quite understand this one.

boot = /dev/hda
From an old lilo.conf. As i don't use LILO but Grub and kernel 2.6.7.

You get an output from -scanbus, like 0,0,0.
That should bee the device in /dev. /dev/sr0.
Fore the emulated scsi-device.
"ln -s /dev/sr0 /dev/cdrecorder" to make the symlink
Can't show you because of 2.6.7 and udev. And don't use that way.
To configure the device.
So do read the manual.

>> Edit /etc/fstab to your likeing
No differences there.

Good! Now do read the manual, it is all over
"The net" ( http://www.google.com/linux ).
Read up on the 2.6 kernel as well.
So you don't have to ask next time.
