I'm using kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686-smp provided by Debian.

I was trying to figure out why my CD drive doesn't work, I noticed this
in the dmesg (complete dmesg follows):

ata2: PATA max UDMA/33 cmd 0x170 ctl 0x376 bmdma 0xF008 irq 15
ata2: dev 0 cfg 49:0b00 82:0000 83:0000 84:0000 85:0000 86:0000 87:0000
88:0000
ata2: no udma
ata2: dev 0 not supported, ignoring

.... which is evidently where it goes wrong.

I've used this burner a lot with kernels 2.4 and 2.6 (it worked with
kernel 2.4 on Debian-testing). I also used this drive with Gentoo around
sept last year and SUSE 9.1 (both with 2.6) and it worked on those.

I'm very confused as to why this would fail to work.

I think this may be related to the somewhat odd setup I have with the
SATA drive. The kernel treats the SATA drive a SCSI, but the BIOS of my
motherboard does not support booting off of SATA drives directly (No
SATA drive can be selected in the boot order), so I set the BIOS to make
the SATA drive 0 look like the primary master ATA drive. Linux still
figures out that it's SATA, but I think it might have decided that all
the ATA drives are SCSI and is having problems with the CD drive there.

What confuses me is how this didn't cause any problems with SUSE or
Gentoo. Both had kernel 2.6, both treated the SATA drive as SCSI, and
they worked fine with the CD drive.

I can think of two solutions: force Linux to treat the SATA drive as
ATA, or add another hard drive that is ATA and boot off of that. I don't
want to do #2 because it's just another thing that can break. I'd be
fine with #1 but I don't know how.

If anyone knows how to do that, or has any other suggestions I'd be
happy to hear them. Thanks in advance for any responses.
