From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7 Description of problem: Hi, I am wondering if any 'growisofs' users have upgraded their distros to Fedora 1.0. I have a Sony DRU-510A drive that I had working under Red Hat9.0. After upgrading to Fedora 1.0, I recompiled the dvd tool chain, just to ensure library compatibility. But neither the RH9-compiled nor the Fedora-compiled versions of 'growisofs' have been producing reliable burns on Fedora 1.0. I don't end up with any errors during the burn, but reading back the burned disk gives me input/output errors. Is anyone out there experiencing similar problems? Thanks, Maciek Kozyrczak PS: I'm almost suspecting the ide-scsi layer, but I have no evidence to support this. The reason I'm suspicious is because I can only burn CD-Rs in my Plextor 48x drive in RAW mode (using 'cdrecord'), or else I also get I/O errors on read-back. Is there some known issue with the 'sg' driver? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create an ISO image 4700372992 bytes in size. 2. growisofs -Z /dev/scd1=1.iso 3. md5sum 1.iso /dev/scd1 Actual Results: 78453c9bfc9f84632e1351dc1ef1108a 1.iso md5sum: /dev/scd1: Input/output error Expected Results: 78453c9bfc9f84632e1351dc1ef1108a 1.iso 78453c9bfc9f84632e1351dc1ef1108a /dev/scd1 Additional info:
Oops! I have to issue a retraction. It looks like my problems can be blamed on two consecutive occurrences of bad DVD media. I was reluctant to burn more disks due to the high price of the media, and was hoping to hear something regarding this from the community. The coincidence of the bad burns with my upgrade to Fedora made the bad media hypothesis easy to dismiss. I apologize for the haste with which I filed this bug report. This still does not explain why 'cdrecord' only works for me in RAW mode, but perhaps that's best described in another bug report. Regards, Maciek Kozyrczak
