For the sake of the archives: cdrecord needs the SCSI passthru device in the kernel in order to work properly. I recompiled a kernel with this device and it then worked. On a different, but related topic: sometimes brand-new CD-Rs are faulty, and the drive will report a "not ready" error and fail to write. george vagner wrote: > cdrecord -dev=0,0,0 -speed=2 -eject -isosize -v > /pathtoisoimage Hmmm ... a couple extra options in there I'm not familiar with, I'll have to reread the man page. > it is wierd your cdrecorder is device 0 though > you must be booting off of IDE hard disk. Not really weird. The computer is all IDE. I recently was given an old SCSI burner and old SCSI adapter so that's the only SCSI device in the computer. > hope this helps.
