Hi, > what I could use else for writing and cleaning BD-RE ?
I am only a bystander here because i got no BD drive to do experiments with. But if you want to do the experiments for then i would be willing to invest some work into the problem. First experiment proposal: Find out whether your Linux supports the drive as normal random access block device: dd if=/dev/zero bs=2048 count=512 of=/dev/sr# with # being the appropriate number. (I assume your kernel log is full of complaints with the block device address of your drive.) If this works without error message, then try to eject, reload and mount your BD-RE. The expected outcome is that mounting does not work any more because you overwrote the head of the filesystem image by above dd command and its 1 MB of zeros. There is of course the risk that this experiment leads to the same evil problems as your previous experiments. So prepare for reboot. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
