what does # cdrecord --scanbus dev=ATAPI: output?
I have found that the upgrade process did not change hdd=ide-scsi to hdd=ide-cd in grub.conf. cdrecord now finds the device and eject works, however writing still fails to open /dev/sg* so I can't create CDs Here is the output you requested: [root@njh njh]# cdrecord --scanbus dev=ATAPI: Cdrecord-Clone 2.01a27-dvd (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2004 Jörg Schilling Note: This version is an unofficial (modified) version with DVD support Note: and therefore may have bugs that are not present in the original.

try to write with: # cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,1,0 .... or # cdrecord dev=/dev/hdd
cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,1,0 has worked, thanks. Looks like the main confusion was caused by the upgrade process failing to change the hdd= entry in grub.conf
Your resolution 'not a bug' is incorrect. There is a bug, but the bug was in the upgrade process. Please reassign to the correct team rather than just saying 'not my problem so I'm going to close it'.
ok... problem is in anaconda? did you use the installer to upgrade?
I booted off the ISO images that I'd downloaded and upgraded from there.
ok, then I'll blame anaconda or the kernel :)
Can you attach your boot loader config?
Yep, that's the file... I'm guessing you put the ide-cd in (instead of ide-scsi)? Can you grab /proc/sys/dev/kernel/info?
Yes, I did. [njh@njh njh]$ cat /proc/sys/dev/kernel/info cat: /proc/sys/dev/kernel/info: No such file or directory [njh@njh njh]$
Err, I can't type. I blame the fact that I had a conference call far too early this morning. /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info

And you're sure it was ide-scsi and not perhaps something mistyped? I can't see how this wouldn't have gotten replaced with the code I added to do removal of ide-scsi lines
