Great!  I ran modprobe sg and got some sensible output to
/var/log/messages (I've inserted blank spaces between lines for
readability):

======================================================================

And cat /proc/scsi/scsi shows:

Attached devices:  Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 04 Lun: 00

Now what do I do?  I'm guessing I need to do a mount on the CDRW, but how
do I determine the device name?  Or what sort of mount command should I
use?

And I'm guessing also that, after doing the mount, I can then go on to use
(figure out) the cdrecord command, yes?


TNX!
