LBA 8d0h / LUN 8d0h

["Roy F. cabaniss" <rcaban@housedraco.org>]

I am now quite possibly that largest producer of coasters in Southern 
Arkansas. (mostly due to sheer stubborness).  On a 64 bit machine using k3b 
as the front end and growisofs as the backend.  On a box that had consistantly 
been burning dvd's suddenly it has ceased.   Dropping the speed down to 1 has 
no positive results either.  The disks to the best of my knowledge are a good 
brand (I've burned over 300 dvd's, both data and video). The errors are 
different but very similar ( 8d0h is the common denominator).

Is there a way to check to see if my burner has given up the ghost?  Or might 
this be a problem cause its on a 64?

error from when I try to burn from an iso image.

:-! "COMMAND SEQUENCE ERROR"@LBA=8d0h. Is media being read?
:-! the LUN appears to be stuck at 8d0h, retrying in 5 secs...
   4620288/4665380864 ( 0.1%) @0.0x, remaining 2858:09

it also reports an error while trying to create an iso image when it tries to 
do it on the fly.

Thanks for the aid
