i get the same message using sid and kernels through 2.10-1-k7.
However, as root i just ran
cdrecord -v /dev/hdc speed=8 -overburn knoppix.iso and it worked fine and
wrote me a disk.
note i ran that as root.
if your device is /dev/hdd then use that. Look in /etc/fstab.
there seems to be (have been) some unpleasantness going on
between the cdrecord gurus
and
the kernel gurus
that affects device stuff, as well permissions and funny messages in
cdrecord if i recall old posts...
however you can still burn baby burn...:)
