If you are using ide-scsi emulation, do not access cd-rom drive with ordinaery ide-cdrom driver. cdrecord is accessing ide-cdrom drive.
add lilo.conf (if cd-rw is hdc) append="hdc=ide-scsi" softlink /dev/scd0 -> /dev/cdrom edit fstab (No more /dev/cdrw) /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0 That what I do with my cdrw.
