Hi,

For years that i've been recording CDs and DVDs and all well.
Now, i can't in CentOS-4

First i run:
# mkisofs -r -J -o cd_backup cd/

Then
# cdrecord -scanbus

Output is:
cdrecord: Warning: controller returns wrong size for CD capabilities page.
        1,0,0   100) 'SAMSUNG ' 'CD-ROM SC-148F  ' 'F008' Removable CD-ROM
        1,1,0   101) 'HP      ' 'CD-Writer+ 9500 ' '1.0e' Removable CD-ROM
        1,2,0   102) *
        1,3,0   103) *
        1,4,0   104) *
        1,5,0   105) *
        1,6,0   106) *
        1,7,0   107) *

So, i used to record using:
#  cdrecord -v speed=16 dev=1,1,0 -data cd_backup


But i get this error:

"[root at tux gamito]# cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=1,1,0 -data cd_backup
cdrecord: No write mode specified.
cdrecord: Asuming -tao mode.
cdrecord: Future versions of cdrecord may have different drive dependent

Any ideas ?
