CDRECORD MYSTERY
runnin 4.6
burncd works fine with this machine's ide burner designated to burncd as
/dev/acd0c, however cdrecord reports it's working just fine as
well and it even finishes and fixates the disk. But when i pull out the
finished CD-R it doesn't look burned and i put it into another machine
and sure enough it's not...
can anyone help w/ thsi mystery
the reason cdrecord over burncd
burncd w/ thsi machine has been flaky, every 3rd-4th burn i have to try
resetting this ide burner and usually end up doing a reboot.
On this 4.6 box i dnloaded Soren's CDRTOOLS-ATA where i got this version of
cdrecord that works w/ ide burners.
I checked for /dev/ata on this 4.6 box and it does exist. reason i say this
is because of note below about building cdrecord on other box and then
copying onto this box, both boxes are 4.6 machines.
as you see below "cdrecord -scanbus" also works.
NOW the 4.6 machine that CDRTOOLS-ATA was built and this machine ARE
diffrent boxes i simply copied cdrecord, once it was built on other 4.6 box,
to this 4.6 box.
Here's the relevant output, note that cdrecord ends as if successfull but it
s NOT. tried burning at 4 speed 8 speed 12 speed etc, always
the same end, seeming as if successfull.
