That's strange, when I type cdrecord by itself I get the usage options. did you try "cdrecord -scanbus" to get the dev=scsi_bus/target/lun numbers and then use "cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 some.iso"? I don't think you can mount a blank cdr anyway, since it has no file system on it. jay On Sat, May 15, 2004 at 06:56:02PM -0700, Austin Isler wrote: > I checked the archives and the only answer it seemed to give me was to > make sure I unmount my cdrw drive.
