Try "cdrecord -scanbus" as root. If that shows a burner attachted, edit
/etc/fstab and see where the line for your CD-R is trying to mount the device
from. It should probably be changed to /dev/scd0. If you've got 7.0 just try
to change the line dev=blah to "dev=/dev/scd0".

Try:

Without the "f" switch, I think tar is waiting for input from the console.

You need to add "mem=128M" to the loadlin line.
Here is what one of my lines looks like:

I had a similar problem. First make sure you can mount the CD-RW manually. I
think the installer is smart enough to determine the drive is CD-RW, so it
sets up the SCSI emulation for you. It just doesn't change fstab to reflect
this. Try (assuming you want to mount it on /mnt/cdrom2):
mount
Sounds like you changed the default run level. Edit /etc/inittab
and change the line (x is probably a 3):
id:x:initdefault:
to
id:5:initdefault:
Just be careful with that file.

Before you run an application in a terminal as root, you need to type:
xhost localhost
If you close that terminal, you will have to retype it to run apps in another
terminal as root. I think you can also add it to .xinitrc to have it executed
every session.
