However I get this rather unhelpful warning from my installed copy of cdrecord. # cdrecord -prcap dev=/dev/hdc Cdrecord 2.01a16 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2003 Jörg Schilling scsidev: '/dev/hdc' devname: '/dev/hdc' scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2 Warning: Open by 'devname' is unintentional and not supported. Linux sg driver version: 3.5.27 Using libscg version 'schily-0.7' The only other writing programme I'd be interested in at the moment is cdrdao. This definitely doesn't like non-SCSI devices, unless there is an updated version of this one too that I don't know about. -- Ian.
