That doesn't hang for me either. It hangs only when I specify the device.

It is an IDE CD writer. Yes, I have read that scanbus is no longer
necessary for IDE drives, but I try it anyway. I have also tried:
ckasso at lochness:~$ cdrecord dev=/dev/cdrw /home/ckasso/Desktop/boot.iso
cdrecord: No write mode specified.
cdrecord: Asuming -tao mode.
cdrecord: Future versions of cdrecord may have different drive dependent defaults.

NOTE: this version of cdrecord is an inofficial (modified) release of cdrecord
and thus may have bugs that are not present in the original version.
Please send bug reports and support requests to <cdrtools at packages.debian.org>.
The original author should not be bothered with problems of this version.
cdrecord: Warning: Running on Linux-2.6.12-10-386
cdrecord: There are unsettled issues with Linux-2.5 and newer.
cdrecord: If you have unexpected problems, please try Linux-2.4 or Solaris.
scsidev: '/dev/cdrw'
devname: '/dev/cdrw'

and it hangs.
Writing to no device produces the same result.
Writing to hdc produces the same result except:
scsidev: '/dev/hdc'
devname: '/dev/hdc'
ckasso at lochness:~$ ls -l /dev/cdrw
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-03-06 08:08 /dev/cdrw -> hdc
Thanks for the responses
Chris
