Nope, I do not think ro is only for CDR. I do have CD-RW/R drive to be precise. I can still write to it throgh cdrecord. Since cdrecord does not write access through /dev/scd0 for writing but uses /dev/sg device and SCSI bus address, this works. (Correct me if I am wrong) The only difference between CD-RW and CD-R is option used for cdrecord. Just add "blank=fast" in command line and use right kind of disk for burning CD-RW! If you know way to use CD-RW disk on /dev/scd0 with harddisk like R/W access, let me know. I am sceptical though.
