Re: blank=all only works in isolation



	Me neither. I know I had tried, and it didn't work, way before 1.0-final came out. I didn't complain because I figured that it wasn't valid - like you say, doing two steps at once..

Me.

cdrecord -vv dev=1,0 blank=all /path/to/some.iso

NEVER works. I typically get something like:

Performing OPC...
Blanking entire disk
cdrecord: faio_wait_on_buffer for writer timed out.
Blanking time: 1183.496s


I never do this, and this may be the reason why nobody did complain before....
I didn't even know this was a supported operation... like you I've been doing it in two steps, back to the days when my Phillips 2600 SCSI drive was new stuff.
