Write to a CD in SCO

I have a system running SCO OS 5 that has a built-in DVD writer. IS there a way I can write out files to a cd? How can I find a driver? How does it run? Any ideas would be appreciated.

Which release? If you have the program 'cdrecord' then you are OK.
There are several threads on this subject, search for 'cdrecord'

Thanks for replying. Not sure of the release. How can I find it from the root # prompt?
Meanwhile I am checking for cdrecord.

uname -X
will give the system name and release information.

cdrecord is on the Skunkware cd, and is also part of the last maintenance release of 5.0.6 and forward.
If you have Microlite Edge installed, its version of cdrecord is slightly different than the standard version.

# uname -X

System = SCO_SV
Node = scosysv1
Release = 5v6.0.0
KernelID = 2006-02-23
Machine = Pentium
BusType = ISA
Serial = 3NF002571
Users = 30
OEM# = 0
Origin# = 1
NumCPU = 1

I have cdrecord installed but it doesn't work yet. I will try to figure this out and follow up with a post if I can get it to work.
