You do _NOT_ need SCSI emulation if you are using pg - it's built in.
(But you might want it for some other reason).

Change your CMOS settings for the parallel port - you want to use EPP
mode, but not ECP mode. If you cannot get EPP mode, try for "bidirectional"
mode. You will also need to force the port delay (that delay 1 above) to
zero if you have to burn in a non-EPP mode. (Read the comments in pg.c
for details.)

No, you are misconstruing the message. "Removable CD-ROM" is just a
report of the drive's SCSI attributes.

There you see that it is in fact a CD-RW device.

shmget has nothing to do with PARIDE, pg, your port or your drive. It
is a function to get shared memory from your kernel. Either you are out
of address space (unlikely) or you don't have SysV IPC in your kernel (more
likely). Mind you, I was not aware that cdrecord needed SysV IPC, so I've
learned something today :-)
