cdrecord -scanbus dev=ATA behaves strangely. My cdrecorder is locateted at scsibus 0,1,0. Wich should mean ATA:0,1,0 should be pointing to that device, but it points to my secondary harddisk hdb. Eluding any number after ATA, makes cdrecord look for a cdburner on hda. Of course, it finds nothing. Can this strange beavior have concequences for the rest of the cdrecord based utilities? Vegard
