that means you've not correctly setup the kernel for burning or at least thats
how its been for me when i got that message....

just make sure you've got the scsi emulation etc. settings to Y as the howto
suggests..

ALSO:
 you must insert the following into /etc/profile ( starting with test and
ending with cdrecord -scanbus )

that should do it ......let us know if that works for you
