Every modern cdrecorder manufactured in the last years should work without
any problems. Mostly not being able to boot is a bios problem.

Recent versions of cdrecord are able to use the ATAPI method to burn cdroms.
This method is aside of the classic ide-scsi method nd is that what some
people would call "native" burning.
I do not know if the woody version has already this method, but the sid
and sarge version does.
If you want to use it try:
cdrecord -scanbus dev=ATAPI:
then you should see something like this:
scsibus0:
0,0,0 0) 'TOSHIBA ' 'DVD-ROM SD-R2312' '1708' Removable
CD-ROM
Then you are lucky and are able to use the ATAPI transport method:
cdrecord -speed XX dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -eject -v XXXX.iso
But be carefull, this method is marked a beta. But I use it for several
months without any problems.
