    Hi Alvin,

    Thanks for your advice.

    I have visited the above site, some of link already missing. Several things
    have changed with cdrecord lately. The latest versions of cdrecord, however,
    support writing to IDE/ATAPI cd writers directly using the ATAPI system.
    'man cdrecord' does not help much.

    # cdrecord -scanbus
    did not generate the needed information. I have to use following command
    instead

    # cdrecord dev=ATAPI -scanbus

    ============
    With following command I can blank a CDRW
    # cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 speed=4 blank=all -v -eject
    without complaint.

    However with following command I can't burn a CDRW

    # cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 speed=4 -v -eject /path/to/folder containing
    tarballs

    I am still searching for method on remedy.

    I have made following tests according to suggestions in the abovementioned
    website (URL)
