Jens Axboe sent me a URL for downloading cdrw blanking software
he wrote for Linux that uses ATAPI disconnect.  I was erasing a
cd with cdrecord the other day and I tried to mount a CD in my
reader and got an Oops when cdrecord finished.  The kernel is at
fault, but it sucked not being able to mount a CD because of
cdrecord blanking the RW disk.

So, can we assume that cdrecord will also use disconnect in the
future?
