That *might* be the root cause. Do you have an /etc/cdrecord.conf? Might have some things like CDR_DEVICE=2,0,0 cdrom= /dev/hdc -1 -1 burnfree On 4.x, this last line seems to be the item used for specifying the device. This 4.x has only a CD-RW, not DVD. My 5.x show DVD capability too because I have a DVD burner on that one. An ls -l of /dev/d* should show some symbolic links of hd*. This on my 5.x. cdrecord -dev=cdrom -prcap Device type : Removable CD-ROM Version : 0 Response Format: 1 Vendor_info : 'CDWRITER' Identifikation : 'IDE5224 ' Revision : '0012' Device seems to be: Generic mmc CD-RW.

It will not include devices like cdrom here. That is a symbolic link to /dev/hdc (in my case). # cdrecord -scanbus For me, ... scsidev: 'ATA' devname: 'ATA' scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2 ... scsibus1: 1,0,0 100) 'CDWRITER' 'IDE5224 ' '0012' Removable CD-ROM 1,1,0 101) * 1,2,0 102) * 1,3,0 103) * 1,4,0 104) * 1,5,0 105) * 1,6,0 106) * 1,7,0 107) * Do you have an env variable (from bash prompt) echo $CDR_DEVICE I'll go over to my 5.X and re-write a 5.1 DVD now.
