Package: wodim Version: 9:1.1.2-1 Severity: normal I accidentally had too much data to backup, and the ISO image my scripts generated was about 750 MB. I guess that's over the limit (my CD-RW discs are rated at 700 MB), and wodim realised that. However, it failed to inform me about that, and chose to give me the following error messages:
+ wodim -v archives.iso wodim: No write mode specified. wodim: Asuming -tao mode. wodim: Future versions of wodim may have different drive dependent defaults. Quickly guessing the name of a drive capable to write DVD-R, please wait... Unable to guess the target drive. Please specify manually using dev=... argument or other configuration methods, see wodim(1) for details. TOC Type: 1 = CD-ROM scsidev: '-1' devname: '-1' scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2 scsidev: 'ATA:-1' devname: 'ATA:-1' scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2 wodim: No such file or directory. Cannot open SCSI driver! For possible targets try 'wodim --devices' or 'wodim -scanbus'. For possible transport specifiers try 'wodim dev=help'. For IDE/ATAPI devices configuration, see the file README.ATAPI.setup from the wodim documentation. "wodim blank=fast" works fine without a device specification, and bringing my ISO image back to a more reasonable size results in the CD being written.
