I really hate asking this question because I know it must be obviously simple to a lot of you. I have searched endlessly on the net, and through the forum for an answer but have failed to find ANYTHING that will help.

I downloaded the cdrdao-1.1.5.bin.x86.linux.tar.gz file. Un tarred it and found the binary file cdrdao. After running this file i get the following output....
-----------------8<-----------------
[root@zerah cdrdao-1.1.5.bin.x86.linux]# ./cdrdao blank
Cdrdao version 1.1.5 - (C) Andreas Mueller <andreas@daneb.de>
  SCSI interface library - (C) Joerg Schilling
  L-EC encoding library - (C) Heiko Eissfeldt
  Paranoia DAE library - (C) Monty

Check http://cdrdao.sourceforge.net/drives.html#dt for current driver tables.

Using libscg version 'schily-0.5'

/dev/cdrecorder: HP CD-Writer+ 8200     Rev: 1.0f
Illegal instruction
--------------->8--------------
I originally thought it was my cd writer, because i had a cheapie, but when I put the HP in the same thing happened.

I then had a feeling that the /dev/cdrecorder file was pointing to the wrong device, perhaps to the hdd instead of the scd0, after checking all that looked fine.

I would really appreaciate any help with this. If any more information is required I will do my best to obtain it.

I apologise if this is covered elsewhere. If it is could you please point me in the right direction ??

Thankyou
