Some information about your configuration and the
error output would be
most helpful.  Basically, what kind of drive is it?
What device is seen
as (hda, hdb, etc)?  What does the computer say when
you boot up about
the drive (you can check the output of dmesg for
this)?  Exactly what
error messages does cdrecord give?  What command
line are you using to
burn the disc?

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
cdrecord: There are unsettled issues with Linux-2.5
and newer.
cdrecord: If you have unexpected problems, please try
Linux-2.4 or Solaris.
cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open

cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord

/usr/share/doc/cdrecord/README.ATAPI.setup .



So, what should I do?

try : cdrecord dev=ATAPI --scanbus

both as root and user, and check /etc/default/cdrecord

look for:

CDR_DEVICE=cdrom
cdrom=          ATAPI:/dev/hdc  -1      -1              burnfree -v
