Good news: cdrskin works as it should. Intermezzo: growisofs would do about the same for you. You would have to talk it into using the mkisofs which cooperated properly with cdrskin. man growisofs proposes: export MKISOFS=/path/to/trusted/mkisofs But next i get a sour look on my face: The block device driver and cdrskin are not in sync. Ejecting and reloading discards the i/o cache. So i assume that cache was outdated after cdrskin has ended its work. I know this effect from Linux 2.4 and CD images smaller than 1 MB. Obviously it is present in your Linux with much larger images. To have cache and media out of sync is unhealthy. The current state is not safe without ejecting. So add option -eject to your cdrskin command for now. Well, 18 MB is ridiculous small for a DVD session. DVD+R allows 153 sessions. Even with some overhead between sessions it will be only 3 GB then. So i urge you to make experiments with generous padsize= . I would try values like 20m or 100m. You should also make experiments with growisofs. Maybe it knows a trick ... if so: tell me. Any bystander here who knows how to refresh the i/o cache of /dev/sr0 ? Best without the need to be superuser. :)) Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
