/dev/acd0(c) is the default, at least on 4.8.  -t is for a test... and
it needs a "fixate" at the end to complete the CD:

burncd -s4 data slackware-9.1-install-d1.iso fixate

would really create a CD-R.

Are you using a CD-R disk?  (Not CD-RW.)  Has it been written before?
Some brands of drives are not supported by burncd... there should be a
