It is not difficult at all.  I am using Yamaha 4416S which is their
older rewritable SCSI for the past 3 years.  These are the commands
you need to know:

# cdrecord -scanbus
# cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=0,6,0 -data /opt/iso/Mandake71-inst.sparc.iso

The first command tells you what your writer's device is (mine
is 0,6,0).  The second one just does it.
