Buffer underruns cause cdrecord to stop burning if you aren't using the burnfree driver option. If you can write the whole image, you probably have no buffer underruns. If you use burnfree, you can use the -v option to see a count of the prevented buffer underruns. > If I'm burning an iso image, do I need to use SAO (DAO) instead of TAO? You should burn SAO whenever possible, but this has nothing to do with the image type. Fabian -- http://www.fabiankeil.de/
