I recently had a simular issue, and could get farther when specifing
the transport (i.e. ATA, ATAPI), but it still would not work for me.
Someone tried just specifying the device file, instead of the scsi ID
and that worked perfectly. I don't know what changed in cdrecord
between RHEL 3 and RHEL 4, but just using the device file seems to be
the path that works (i.e. dev=/dev/scd0).
