Not sure with xcdroast where the device name is held, but you should get 
better results with dev=ATA

That gives you dma write access.

2.6.8 requires you to run as root (as others have noted).  I have been unable 
to create any cd at all since 2.6.7 (as root or otherwise) so there is also 
some other bug hidden in there

(its not hardware, I can dual boot into winxp and create a cd from there).
