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.
