That only works with 2.6 kernels. If you don't have a 2.6 kernel, you have
to do a "cdrecord -scanbus" and use the 0,0,X number of the burner that you
want to use like:
cdrecord -v speed=8 dev=0,0,X cdimage.iso
If "cdrecord -scanbus" doesn't show anything and you don't have a 2.6
kernel, then you have to try and set up your CD-RW as a SCSI device on an
IDE port (a pain in the *ss). If nothing shows up and you have a 2.6
kernel, try "cdrecord -scanbus dev=ATA" and see if they show up.
Hope this helps.
