If yes, try (adapt to your device adress)

Then I can invoke (as user even though cdrecord belongs to root):

$cdrecord -v -dao dev=/dev/hdc truc.iso

take care tu umount your device before burning. I do not know why.
I know it does not work, otherwise.
Hope it leads you further on the good way.
Greetings, Joyce Markoll.
