Instead, you specify the device the same way you would for the mount command. SO, if you are using an IDE burner, you would use something like:
cdrecord -v speed=2 dev=/dev/hdc -data cd_image Now, if you are using the same append line in the boot loader for 10.1 as you used for 9.2, you will need to remove the ide-scsi option. Now, if you have a SCSI burner, then this does not apply. I have not used a SCSI burner with 10.1 yet.
