Hi,
I have written a multisession data DVD+R with Nero Burning ROM 6.3. Then I
haven't added any more session and I have closed the disc with Pinnacle
Instant CD/DVD 8 OEM. The content of this disc is accessible without any
problem under Windows 2000. Under Linux, when I try to mount the disc with
'mount /dev/writer /mnt/writer/', I get this error:
mount: block device /dev/writer is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/writer,
or too many mounted file systems
I (obviously) obtain the same error when i try to use it in my dvd-rom.
The strangest thing is that I can mount (and then access as usual) this disc
with 'mount -oloop /dev/writer /mnt/writer'
Have you got any idea about this behaviour? Is it possible to make the disc
'normally' (without '-oloop') mountable again?
The interesting thing is that 'addir' I use to write my multisession
backups doesn't ever close the CD, and I have had zero problems on
Linux, both 2.6.9 or 2.4.17 and 2.4.24. However, I do a -pad at
the end of every session, which may or may nor have any meaning in this
case, never tried without it.
Before you ask, addir is sort of like growisofs, but for CDs, and does
some interesting things which make it very useful for doing backups of
many small sessions, such as daily incremental dumps, etc.
