    I have an IDE CD burner (Plextor PlexWriter 40/12/40A). SCSI emulation is already turned on. Cdrecord works just fine but I get this error when I try to use cdrdao:

    ERROR: Cannot open SCSI device '0,1,0': Cannot open '/dev/sg0'
    ERROR: Please use option '--device bus,id,lun', e.g. --device 0,6,0
    ERROR: Cannot setup device 0,1,0.

    Can anyone help?

      Do you have read/write permissions set for /dev/sg0?

        Yes.  I've been using cdrecord to burn CDs for a while now.

      Nevermind.  It's fixed now.  I was setting permissions for the wrong device.  /dev/cdrom and /dev/cdrom1 point to /dev/scd0 and /dev/scd1.  I was setting those permissions but not /dev/sg0.
