Another question.  I've been using scsi emulation support successfully for my
burners up until now.  After reading this thread, I setup a grub scenario to
boot without my usual 'hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi' and tried

cdrecord -scanbus dev=ATAPI:

with the following results:

Does everyone get this warning, or is there another versdion of cdrecord that I
need to use?
