Problems burning CDs using cdrecord

Hi guys, someone tell me what am I doing wrong. I am trying to burn a data CD. So this is what I do. First I typed as a root

Code:

#cdrecord -scanbus

and got this output:

Code:

Cdrecord-Clone 2.01 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2004 Jörg Schilling
Linux sg driver version: 3.1.25
Using libscg version 'schily-0.8'.

        1,6,0   106) *
        1,7,0   107) *

Then I pop an empty CD in the CD drive and go:

Code:

cdrecord dev=1,0,0 myhomedir.iso

But it doesn't work. Output is:

Code:

cdrecord: No write mode specified.
cdrecord: Asuming -tao mode.
cdrecord: Future versions of cdrecord may have different drive dependent defaults.
cdrecord: Continuing in 5 seconds...

cdrecord: Sorry, no CD/DVD-Drive found on this target.

So what am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Hi,

I had a similar problem so I changed my command line options to this:
cdrecord dev=ATAPI -scanbus

And to:
cdrecord -v speed=8 dev=ATAPI:/dev/cdrom -data image.iso

Hope it helps.
