Changing the append statement and running lilo didn't work. I know that I did get cdrecord to work on this box under Solaris X86. ( that's how i burned the debian CD's). I really don't want to re-install Solaris x86. I want to run debian, and I need cdrecord to work on it. Might you have any other suggestions? When I installed Debian, I installed the idepci flavor. Should I re-install with the vanilla flavor?
