If you look through /var/log/messages you should see something similar to this: <hostname> kernel: hdc: attached ide-scsi driver <hostname> kernel: scsi0 : SCSI hsot adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices. The make and model of you CD-Writer should be listed below. You should also see the following line shortly thereafter: <hostname> kernel: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 The scsi channel, id, and lun numbers may vary. This should tell you which scsi bus your cd-writer is attached to and where it is located. It should also tell you what errors, if any, you might be having.
