[ale] burned by the burner

[Calvin Harrigan]

Seems like you have recently added a new device to your machine.  Seems
like either some kind of memory reader or one of those disk on a chain
type of thingies (Heavy technical terms :) ).  It's probably a usb
device.  Unplugging it and rebooting should bring it back to normal, but
running:

cdrecord --scanbus

will tell you where it (cd-burner) was moved to.


On a side note, those memory devices are emulated as scsi disk and so is
your writer.  It's a matter of who gets there first.
