As shown by Anard's citation of FC2 releases notes, actually cdrecord can be invoked this way: cdrecord dev=/dev/hdd .... That's the way my own backup BASH script invokes it everyday, and it works. With FC 1, that script used the usual SCSI syntax (cdrecord dev=0,1,0...), but when I installed FC 2, it stopped working, so, after some hacking, it turned back to work using thie first syntax above. But please note the lines in cdrecord's output about this naming convention... Best regards.
