If the first method only works as root, you did not install cdrecord correctly. |

You need to install it suid root. If you are able to burn using dev=/dev/cdrom, |
| 10 |
there may be a security hole in your system. In any case, this way you cannot |
| 11 |
send all needed SCSI command to your drive as without root permission, the |
| 12 |
Linux kernel silently filters away some of the SCSI commands needed by cdrecord. |

The first method is the official one. There is absolutely no garantee that the |

second method works at all. |

This is wrong. The official supported method is to use dev=b,t,l |
