Hello, I've got an SCSI CD-Writer, which only gives errors when I try to use cd-record (see full log at the end of the message)
As the problem is identical on a fresh 4.4-Rel (with cd-record installed from the CD as a binary package) and a recently updated 4.5-RC, there is strong suspicion the drive itself is dying. can anyone decode the ASCII dump of the SCSI error message ? (I've also cleaned the optics, in case there was too much dust, but no joy) time to buy a new Yamaha 2100S ?
