MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG everytime I try to do a burncd acd0 blank or a burncd acd0 fixate burncd exits before it finishes the write to the cdrw. is there a way to get either writing sync (so it wont exit until the data are written) or a way to test the "busy status" to wait on the async write to complete. I need a shell script to wait for the cdrw to be written, then eject it with eject. even waiting mins blindly, eject always says device busy and exits without ejecting the cd. the drawer wont open unless something is done to the device after the write exists. *sigh* Fuz To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
