xcdroast not working?  What does "cdrecord -scanbus" show you when the
7200e is plugged in and all the modules are loaded?  It's entirely
possible that the thing is way out on /dev/sg8 or some such, though
cdrecord will probably report it as "1,0,0".  You also need "SCSI Generic
Support" compiled as a module or into the kernel for writing to work at
all.  Once that's done, try cdrecord out.  Its diagnostic messages are
somewhat terse and cryptic, but a damn sight more helpful than Xcdroast's.

BTW, don't post 5 copies of the same message.  It makes people think
you're clueless...
