I burn data cds using that all the time. I can't use dev=-2,-2,-2 even
though that's what it supposedly maps to:

scsidev: 'ATAPI:/dev/hdc'
devname: 'ATAPI:/dev/hdc'
scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2

For some reason it doesn't like it when I uee the numbers. *shrugs*

Just tried that, same results.

Should I use ATA instead?
