I don't know much about cdrecord, and its man pages specify only SCSI drives for writing to CD.
Is it so, that cdrecord is one of the command line options only for *SCSI* optical drives? (CD Writers)
I currently use K3b to write CD's, but wanted to try out cdrecord, and it seems as if there's no ATA support with it, is it?
-- I am a novice, and still learing

In kernels 2.4 and below, you need to turn on SCSI emulation (ide-scsi). In 2.6, just pass cdrecord the ATA device.
cdrecord dev=/dev/hdc foo.iso

On Debian Sarge this is documented in detail at: /usr/share/doc/cdrecord/README.ATAPI.setup
Check if you have a similar file in your distro.

There is a section in K3B where you can read the full command of the job you have selected through its GUI. That will give you the exact clue. :)
