Hi,
I'm just doing my first steps in cd-burning.
Hard- and software info:
------------------------
# cdrecord -checkdrive dev=4,0
Cdrecord release 1.8a29 Copyright (C) 1995-1999 J�rg Schilling
scsidev: '4,0'
scsibus: 0 target: 4 lun: 0
Using libscg version 'schily-0.1'
Device type : Removable CD-ROM
Version : 2
Response Format: 2
Capabilities : SYNC LINKED
Vendor_info : 'PLEXTOR '
Identifikation : 'CD-R PX-W4220T'
Revision : '1.01'
Device seems to be: Generic mmc CD-RW.
Using generic SCSI-3/mmc CD-R driver (mmc_cdr).
Driver flags : SWABAUDIO
I already created some trial CDs using xcdroast. As my Plextor supports
CD-RWs I put a small backup (200M) on a CD-RW. Now xcdroast doesn't
support blanking of a CD-RW. So I use cdrecord with the command:
# cdrecord blank=all dev=4,0
Starting to write CD/DVD at speed 2 in write mode for single session.
Last chance to quit, starting real write in 1 seconds.
It starts working but after a *long* time I get this final verdict:
cdrecord: I/O-Error. blank unit: scsi sendcmd: retryable error
CDB: A1 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
status: 0x2 (CHECK CONDITION)
Sense Bytes: F0 00 03 00 04 2C 6C 0A 00 00 00 00 0C 07 00 00
Sense Key: 0x3 Medium Error, Segment 0
Sense Code: 0x0C Qual 0x07 (write error - recovery needed) Fru 0x0
Sense flags: Blk 273516 (valid)
cmd finished after 1914.743s timeout 9600s
cdrecord: Cannot blank disk, aborting.
Is it a matter of medium? I use BASF (silver/silver) CD-RW 650M / 74 Min
How can I use CD-RWs with cdrecord so I can blank and reuse them?
BTW: I already did man cdrecord (there I found the blank command).
