It's a Lite-on CD-RW.It's seen as /dev/hdd, but when I
use it to read a CD, I got no problem. /dev/cdrom and
/dev/cdrw point to /dev/hdd, is it normal?? I'm using
Debian etch.

This is output when I execute "cdrecord -scanbus" :

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@packages.debian.org>.
      The original author should not be bothered with
problems of this version.

cdrecord: Warning: Running on Linux-2.6.16-2-486

So, what should I do?
