with an IDE CDrom burner, there are 2 issues here:
1) kernel bitches (as the submitter indicates), this is not fatal.
2) If the command is not run as root, then I get the error:
       :-( unable to PREVENT MEDIA REMOVAL: Operation not permitted

Of course, since I use sudo to get to root, I have to unset SUDO_COMMAND in
order to actually burn the dvd as root... :-(

Basically, we need to allow non-root to prevent media removal, it would appear,
or make growisofs not consider that fatal...
