Any idea why that happens? It used to work w/o any trouble. The
only thing that changed is that the drive that held the data being burned
was IDE, and now all the drives are scsi. Everything seems fine on the
bus. No errors from debugging information. The system is an amd
2000 xp w/ 256 MB DDR 2700. Can anyone think of any other ways troubleshoot this.
scsi bus seems fine, mutliple kernels have the problem, v 1.1 and 2.0 of
cdrecord have the problem. And it used to work great. I suppose I can put
an IDE drive back on it, and try writing data from it. The hard drives are
68pin lvd and the burned is 50 pin scsi on an adaptec 2940u2w
