I followed the cd burner setup tutorial in the docs forum and the "sg" module wasn't found by modprobe. This causes cdrecord -scanbus to fail I think.

Any idea what I did wrong?

In the kernel menuconfig, did you enable SCSI support / SCSI generic support as a module.
You can grep it to find out real quick:
grep -i 'sg' /usr/src/linux/.config

CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG=m

if you see that in there, then it is a Module. If it says 'y' then it is compiled in the kernel and not a module. If says 'not set' then you didn't do either.

Redo your kernel and make a module, then you should be able to modprobe it. Don't forget to mount your /boot folder before copying the new kernel to /boot. Don't forget to rerun lilo or reconfigure grub, depending on which your using.
