Hi,

The evolving of cdrecord/wodim and its device specification have been convoluted enough for me to get lost on how to use its devices.

My current cdrecord command is the "real one" from grml:

$ apt-cache policy cdrecord cdrecord: Installed: 9:2.01.01-1~a50 Candidate: 9:2.01.01-1~a50 Version table: *** 9:2.01.01-1~a50 0 683 http://deb.grml.org grml-testing/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

cdrecord -scanbus

suggests to us the ATA interface, so I

export CDR_DEVICE=ATA:2,0,0

but when try to access the device, I get:

$ cdrecord -toc Cdrecord-ProDVD-ProBD-Clone 2.01.01a50 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2008 Jörg Schilling scsidev: 'ATA:2,0,0' devname: 'ATA' scsibus: 2 target: 0 lun: 0 Warning: Using badly designed ATAPI via /dev/hd* interface. cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open '/dev/hd*'. Cannot open or use SCSI driver. cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=help'.

$ cdrecord -scanbus . . . 0,7,0 7) * scsibus2: 2,0,0 200) 'SONY ' 'CD-RW CRX195E1 ' 'ZYS5' Removable CD-ROM . . .

What's the proper way to specify devices for cdrecord?

I'm using recent GRML64 daily build snapshot. Does above have anything to do with ATA being disable in grml kernel?

Thanks
