It means the device is open by something else, and therefore
it won't burn. One of the things done in the final release is
locking of CD/DVD-R/RW drives, so that you don't have other
processes interfering with burns.

Is one of the drives mounted? Is magicdev or autorun running
on the drive? How are you copying?
