You are right. I included cdrecord -scanbus as in my limited knowledge this was the only way to detect if scsi is enabled in the kernel and before proceeding further confirm that the USB device appears in the output. I know I have enabled scsi detection in grub.conf but if some one tries to run this without scsi devices enabled there would be no output
