I've since upgraded to the latest cdrecord in updates/testing, but still no joy. Is it possible this could be my cdr media? Why would it be trying to write track 12 when I specified a .iso file (specifically boot.iso from the FC5 installation media)? > I thought that there was another possible problem with cdrecord.

Is it possible no one else is using cdrecord from the cli that there haven't been complaints? Seems like it might be me, but media is aall I haven't ruled out.
