cdr trouble



I'm having some trouble using my cdr. It appears to be recognized and,
according to /proc/ide/hdd/driver, is using the ide-scsi version 0.9
module (which, AFAIK, is correct) but I can't get it to eject... I've
tried hitting the eject button (of course) with no luck and I've tried
'eject /dev/hdd' which returns and has no effect and I've also tried
'eject /dev/scd1' which reports: "eject: unable to eject, last error:
Input/output error."
What's more, cdrecord -scanbus reports:

Note the "Warning" about returning "wrong size"

Is my cdr drive hosed??? Maybe it's not on /dev/scd1? If so, how do I
figure out where it is? I know my main cdrom drive is on /dev/scd0
because it will eject.

BTW, the regular drive's the slave drive and the cdr's the master, in
case that makes any difference. It's also not an installation problem
because I installed it a couple years ago and it worked fine under
Mandrake and Windows before that...


TIA
