It might be a DMA problem install hdparm then use
hdparm /dev/hd? replacing the question with the drive letter of the burner if it is not set then
hdparm -d1 /dev/hd? and check to see if it helps. If it does to make it take effect every boot in Debian you edit the file /etc/hdparm.conf putting in the proper settings or you can always put it in some script that gets run at boot, You can also recompile your kernel selecting CONFIG_IDEDMA_AUTO=y and related settings.
Code:
grep -i idedma /boot/config-2.6.17-ck1-smp
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_PCI=y
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_FORCED is not set
CONFIG_IDEDMA_PCI_AUTO=y
# CONFIG_IDEDMA_ONLYDISK is not set
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA=y
# CONFIG_IDEDMA_IVB is not set
CONFIG_IDEDMA_AUTO=y
