Well, xcdroast is primarily a graphical front-end for cdrecord.
And in the FC2 Release Notes, it says that there is new Linux support
for ATAPI devices. xcdroast sees them as ATAPI:0,0,0 for example, and
cdrecord will support either --dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 or --dev=/dev/hdc
My guess is that the warning from xcdroast is "out of date"....
No, I haven't tried it yet.... YMMV
