I keep reading this, but xcdroast and so on still complain every time
that I should use SCSI emulation even though the kernel is 2.6.x.
I haven't used xcdroast, so I can't say. Does it work without SCSI
emulation?
Yes, it seemed to work usually. I take the precaution of setting a very
low speed, just in case.

My experience, FWIW, Simply put:
In kernel 2.4, ide-scsi module, we got used to the scsi-emulation concept.
Whereas,
In kernel 2.6, we were (somewhat confusingly, IMO) told the above, i.e.:
"SCSI emulation is not required in v2.6.".
IMHO this _should_ have said something along the lines of:
"SCSI emulation is now built-in, in v2.6 'ide-cd' [compiled-in or as a
module], so 'ide-scsi' is NO LONGER REQUIRED to achieve the _still_
_necessary_ SCSI emulation."
SOooooo,
In xcdroast running as root, [you CAN figure out how.] use the "0,0,0"
device, and _NOT_ the "ATAPI:0.0.0" device. Substitute your own
"bus,id,lun" numbers to suit your box. I can burn dvd-r and cdr/rw fine.
Nuff~sed?
