Somehow I must have done something very dumb to change the link from
rcd0.ctl and scgx. 

Thanks.

I recommend anyone who is going to use or using cdrecord read your
web page http://www.best.com/~spadger/CDR-cdrecord.html excellent.

Looks like it can't open the control device(s).cdrecord tries to open
the
'su' device that corresponds to the bus, target, lunyou specify, e.g.
/dev/su0-3-0 in your case.

If this fails (and it will, because the 'su' device shouldn't  be used
and
the minor
numbers are incorrect in the "standard" cdrecord dist), it'll try to
open
/dev/scgx
instead. This should be linked to the control device for the CDR, either
/dev/wormX.ctl or /dev/cdX.ctl.

I think that's your problem.

See my web page for more hints (the author of cdrecord even links to it
from
the cdrecord page, so it must be useful :=):
