Hello Friends I am using a Sony CDROM writer drive and it is ATAPI. On running cdrecord with option as cdrecord -v dev=/dev/hdc aksar-music. iso it says that it is writing to a SCSI device and after 99% writing gives 'error fixating'. Can somebody please help me how to specify ATAPI for my cdrom drive ? as already one cd is spoiled. cheers Ashish Hi Ashish, I found some solution on this page: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_ATAPI_CD_Burning Basically you should issue this command to see the devices attached cdrecord dev=ATAPI -scanbus Note down the device name which appears sort of like 0,4,2 and then burn it with cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,4,2 /tmp/image.iso I prefer using a GUI tool like XCdRoast or K3B to make things easier. -- Satish Vellanki
