    I have a hardware setup which includes two atapi cdrom like drives - /dev/hdc
    is a cd rewriter (or cd recorder) and /dev/hdd is a dvd drive.

    I am running a 2.6 kernel (2.6.7-k7-1) which is supposed to automatically
    include ide-scsi without the need to load a module.

    I have set up udev to create /dev/hdc and also a symlink /dev/cdrw to point to
    it.

    I am trying to use cdrecord to make a cd. But it seemingly hangs (forever).
    It outputs the information below and then suspends (and ctrl C does not kill
    it).

    alan@kanger debcd $ cdrecord -eject speed=12 dev=/dev/cdrw
    sarge-i386-netinst.iso
    cdrecord: No write mode specified.
    cdrecord: Asuming -tao mode.
    cdrecord: Future versions of cdrecord may have different drive dependent
    defaults.
    cdrecord: Continuing in 5 seconds...

    NOTE: this version of cdrecord is an inofficial (modified) release of cdrecord
          and thus may have bugs that are not present in the original version.
          Please send bug reports and support requests to
    <cdrtools@packages.debian.org>.
          The original author should not be bothered with problems of this
    version.

    scsidev: '/dev/cdrw'
    devname: '/dev/cdrw'
    scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2
    Warning: Open by 'devname' is unintentional and not supported.

    I am not sure what to do to find out what is wrong. Any ideas?
