Bug#330371: cdrecord: scsi buffer allocation fails
Package: cdrecord Followup-For: Bug #330371 Why do you think it's the buffer allocation which fails? That doesn't seem obvious to me from the output. I have a very similar problem. cdrecord fails in the same way. But I also get this message from the kernel: scsi: unknown opcode 0x01 Can you check dmesg, if you're getting the warning message too? I've found that SCSI opcode 0x01 is REZERO UNIT. I've patched cdrecord to not issue this SCSI command (it seems the command is not necessary). I'm attaching a patch you may try.
