Perhaps someone can help me, I have also sent this message to Jens...
I have been trying to get my Toshiba DVD-RAM SD-W1111 to work with linux
kernel 2.2.16.
The drive is recognized by the adaptec controller:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

and I can mount and read regular cdroms so I am pretty sure that the drive
is OK and the device name is OK,
but when I try to format a blank DVD-RAM disk I get:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[root@gonzo4 /]# mke2fs /dev/scd0
mke2fs 1.18, 11-Nov-1999 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
/dev/scd0 is entire device, not just one partition!
Proceed anyway? (y,n) y
mke2fs: No medium found while trying to determine filesystem size
[root@gonzo4 /]#
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Even though there is a disk in the drive.
Any help you can give would be great...
Thanks!
