SubjectRe: ide-scsi is deprecated for cd burning! Use ide-cd and give dev=/dev/hdXas device

That matches my experience, at least as far as the "no problem" part, I
never tried without -pad because it just seemed as if cdrecord would
have a better idea of what the drive wanted than I do.

I have burned tarballs, as well as cpio (I like the checking with -Hcrc
and not overwriting newer versions of a file), and more recently I have
been burning encrypted filesystem images onto DVDs directly, and that
works as well.
