Hello, I just bought my first DVD drive for my linux box (Athlon) debian sarge plus some sid pieces...
The drive is IISONIC8404A and looks similar to MSI8404A dual format and is reportedly similar to other drives sold (opterite, accestek).. dvd+rw-format seems OK I mastered a nealy 4GB archive with xcdroast/mkisofs When I try to burn it with growisofs, I get the following message (after pages of progress information) ..... 4007231488/4129945600 (97.0%) @0.0x, remaining 0:36 :-[ LBA=401ddb30h, SENSE KEY=2h/ASC=04h/ASCQ=07h ] :-( write failed: No medium found /dev/scd1: flushing cache :-( unable to FLUSH CACHE: No medium found This message is with the last sid release of dvd+rw-tools, le previous one gave only ./flushing cache. The program hangs and I have to kill -9 after the crash, if I try some commands, I get bash-2.05b$ dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/scd1 INQUIRY: [ATAPI ][DVD RW 4XMax ][2.07] - [unable to MODE SENSE(20407)]: bash-2.05b$ bash-2.05b$ bash-2.05b$ growisofs -Z /dev/scd1=/home/cdr/track-01.img :-[ Unit won't start: 20407 ] :-( unable to READ FORMAT CAPACITIES: No medium found Is the drive defective or is it a software problem ? Any help is welcome D. PS since I suspected a media proble, I also tried to write on the supplied DVD+R disk, without success. I can burn CD/RW and CD/R -- Dominique Rousset [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
