The error messages do not complain about cdrecord but SCSI driver 
(whatever this may be). So first I shall have a look at the modules
and kernels. Before I test your experimental kernels, I will probably 
try to fix my broken CD-ROM support. Without mounting CDs I 
will not be able to do anything on that computer.

I just discovered the chapter of the BL2 FAQ on CD burning that 
I had contributed those days. I applied a CD-Write Howto without
knowing what I did, and had luck. I am afraid that I have not enough
knowledge to tell you what is wrong with the l8 kernel.

Although David's USB floppy image was my starting point, his kernel 
does not work with my RAM disks (does not load usbcore module).

May be. I aggree that it is too early to give up.
