Hi all,
I have a problem with cdrecord. Specifically, it will not let me write or
erase CDs (CD RW, actually). My system:
Redhat 7.1
cdrecord 1.11-a12 (latest that I could find - earlier versions also don't
work on my system)
HP Omnibook 800 CT (built in SCSI - Symbios logic 53C810 SCSI controller)
166 MHz Pentium MMX
Yamaha 6416 CD RW (SCSI ID 0/0)
Here's the output. The output is the same whether I'm trying to blank or
trying to write.

>From an LED and device perspective, it looks like someone has yanked
the reset line on the SCSI bus several seconds after "Operation starts".
All devices seem to reset. I have a SCSI tape drive on the same SCSI bus,
and it also acts like it has just been reset whenever this failure occurs
(i.e. stops what it's doing and re-positions the tape).
Note that I can read from the CD recorder fine, and I have recorded using
this CD recorder on a different system/OS (CD Writer on my old Atari Falcon).
In addition, I have no problem accessing (reading and writing) the tape drive,
so I don't think it's the SCSI bus or cables (which have all worked fine
before).
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
