Too h... with that README, there is not much value in listing dozens of 10 year old recorders and libscg ads

-# README for cdrkit
-
-This README is an adapted version for the cdrkit suite. The old README file
-contents pulled from the cdrtools package (as created by Joerg Schilling) are
-attached below.
-
-Most of the installation instructions mentioned below are void in context of
-cdrkit. Don't rely on them. Read the INSTALL file for instructions on how to
-install cdrkit.
-
-Many compatibility and portability descriptions below are void in context of
-cdrkit. Cdrkit is less portable than cdrtools and may support fewer devices.
-Cdrkit maintainers encourage to submit results from users of non-Linux
-platforms.
-
-Application name(s) have been changed. The wodim executable is the one used for
-CD/DVD recording within the cdrkit suite.
-
-The same applies to most README.<topic> files found in this directory.
-
-Wodim has been successfully tested on the following drives:
-
-BENQ DVD DD DW1640
-Philips CDD 3610
-Lite-ON LTR-24102B
-
-It seems that all drives manufactured in this millenium are MMC compliant and
-therefore they should be supported by wodim. When problems appear, you may have
-found a firmware bug in this drive. Try upgrading the firmware in this case.

-
-To learn how to compile and install cdrecord, read README.compile
-
-To compile on currently unknown platforms you definitely need 'smake'
-from ftp.berlios.de/pub/smake or ftp.berlios.de/pub/smake
-GNUmake is too dump to do this job as it does not include automake features
-like 'smake' does.
-
-For multi session please read README.multi
-
-In general, it is a good idea to read all README's and check whether
-they may apply for your needs/problems.
-
-Cdrecord runs without problems on a loaded Solaris system.
-On Solaris, cdrecord uses the SVr4 priocntl() call to establish
-SVr4 real-time scheduling which grants to run cdrecord in a even higher
-priority than all kernel processes. On system that provide POSIX real-time
-scheduling the result may be slightly worse as not all POSIX RT implementations
-grant decent real time behaviour.
-
-The cdrtools distribution contains a SCSI user level transport library
-called libscg. The SCSI library is suitable to talk to any SCSI device without
-having a special device specific driver for it.
-Cdrecord may be easily ported to any system that has a generic SCSI device
-driver similar to the scg driver.
-
-On SunOS/Solaris:
-You *need* the SCSI general driver 'scg' in order to run cdrecord.
-
-SunOS 4.1.3 only:
-	The 'scg' driver is Copyright 1986-1995 Jörg Schilling,
-	it is supplied binary in a loadable format.
-	There is no future support, there is no non loadable support.
-
-Solaris only:
-	The 'scg' driver is Copyright 1986-1995 Jörg Schilling,
-	it is supplied binary in pkgadd(1m) format and is tested 
-	on Solaris 2.3, Solaris 2.4 & Solaris 2.5 (sparc).
-
-Solaris only:
-	It is _nice to have_ the 'fbk' driver to mount files that contain 
-	images of file systems. Fbk means File simulates Block Device.
-
-	The 'fbk' driver is Copyright 1988-1995 Jörg Schilling,
-	it is supplied binary in pkgadd(1m) format and is tested
-	on Solaris 2.3, Solaris 2.4 & Solaris 2.5 (sparc).
-
-On other OS, libscg uses the SCSI drivers that are present on the system.
-
-Cdrecord-1.3 or later adopts the right BUF_SIZE for each architecture.
-This is to reduce some performance problems on Solaris x86.
-It may be that the reason for this performance problems is that
-the PC-architecture has no IO-MMU and therefore is not able to do DVMA.
-If this points out to be the reason, I have to
-change the scg driver & cdrecord, but this would 
-be needed on Linux anyway.
-

-
-	NOTE:
-
-	It seems that all drives that have been initially released in 1999

-
-Multi-session has not been tested with the Plasmon RF-4100
-
-All companies that support me with SCSI command reference manuals and drives
-will get (continued) support in the following releases.
-
-The following drives will never be supported by cdrecord because they are too old:
-
-	JVC XR-W1001
-	Pinnacle Micro RCD-202
-	Ricoh RS-9200CD
-
-The following drives are currently not supported because I don't get specs:
-(some of them may partially work: see above)
-
-	Creative Labs CDR 4210
-	JVC XR-W2001
-	JVC XR-W2010
-	JVC XR-W2020
-	Pinnacle Micro RCD-1000
-	Pinnacle Micro RCD-5020
-	Pinnacle Micro RCD-5040
-	Plasmon CDR-4240
-	Sony CDW-900E
-
-The following drives may get support soon (If I get time to do so):
-
-	Panasonic CW-7501
-	Ricoh RS-1060C
-
-If you understang German, it makes sense to have a look at http://www.dchlb.de/
-and http://www.brennmeister.com/ for additional information.
-
-To install get:
-
-Solaris only:
-	SCHILYscg.sparc.tar.Z	The scg driver in pkgadd format (sparc).
-	SCHILYfbk.sparc.tar.Z	The fbk driver in pkgadd format (sparc).
-	SCHILYscg.i386.tar.Z	The scg driver in pkgadd format (x86).
-	SCHILYfbk.i386.tar.Z	The fbk driver in pkgadd format (x86).
-
-Note that the fbk driver packet is for Solaris 2.4 and not system independent.
-
-All Systems:
-	cdrtools-2.0.tar.gz	The cdrtools for source distribution.
-
-NOTE:	All these tar archives are 100% ansi compatible. Solaris 2.x tar and GNU
-	tar may get some minor trouble.
-
-WARNING: Do not use 'mc' to extract the tar file!
-	All mc versions before 4.0.14 cannot extract symbolic links correctly.
-
-To unpack the archive use:
-
-		gzip -d < cdrtools-2.0.tar.gz | tar -xpf -
-
-	Replace 'cdrtools-2.0' by the actual archive name.
-
-	If your Platform does not support hard links or symbolic links, you
-	first need to compile "star" and then call:
-
-		star -xpz -copy-links < cdrtools-2.0.tar.gz
-
-	If your platform does not support hard links but supports
-	symbolic links, you only need to call the command above once.
-	If your platform does not support symbolic links, you need to call
-	the command twice because a symbolic link may occur in the archive
-	before the file it points to.
-		
-
-
-
-
-The files are located on:
-
-ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ ...
-ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/schily/kernel/scg/ ...
-ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/schily/kernel/fbk/ ...
-
-Only use the mkisofs that is contained in this release.
-All other mkisofs versions are too buggy.
-
-
-Installation Process:
-
-Solaris only:
-	1) scg driver
-			untar SCHILYscg.tar:
-			su
-			Password: xxxxx
-			cd /tmp
-			zcat SCHILYscg.tar | tar -xvf -
-			pkgadd -d .
-			reboot -- -r 
-
-	2) fbk driver
-			similar to scg driver (see above)
-
-	3) Switch the CD-Writer to an unused target id (2 should do it)
-		
-
-NOTE:
-	Be very careful. pkgadd does not check for the right target 
-	architecture. Do not install drivers for intel on sparc
-	and vice versa. You will get a corrupt system.
-
-	You need to be root because you need access to /dev/scg? and to be
-	able to put cdrecord into the real-time scheduling class.
-
-All Systems:
-
-The SCSI transport library has been taken from the sformat program.
-Sformat is the first SCSI disk formatting/analyzing/repairing that runs on
-SunOS/Solaris. The first release of sformat has been made for SunOS 3.0
-(two years before Sun introduced their format utility). Sformat source
-including 10 years of competence in SCSI disk handling is available
-on:
-	ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/sformat
-
-I am interested to hear if someone is interested in a kernel based
-filesystem for Solaris that uses packet writing on the CD-Recorder.
-The filesystem will create a single session CD that may be finally converted
-to a hybrid filesystem that allows to be read as 
-ISO-9660 with Rock Ridge extensions too.
-Please mail suggestions to: wofs at schily.isdn.cs.tu-berlin.de
-
-If you want to use the CD-recorder as CD-ROM device, have a look at 
-
-Solaris only:
-ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/schily/kernel/sd
