I tried writing the last backup CD image I made to a CD using the command: cdrecord dev=2,0,0 aby-backup-07-31-05--08-06-05-01.iso I had a blank CD-R disc in the drive when I usued the command. It failed. I tried three different blank CD-Rs. Each time it failed with a different error code. Could it be tripping over the fact that I'm trying to write to a CD-R in a DVD-RW drive? The box the drive came in said that it could do DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD-DL, DVD+RW, DVD-RW, DVD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW and CD-ROM. Could it be the driver that cdrecord is trying to use? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
