Help: Burning multisession DVD+R with cdrecord 2.01.01a37
Summarizing a Long story: I'm using Ubuntu 7.10 gutsy, and I've been
working/researching for almost one week on how to create a multisession
DVD+R for backing up. I've moved from growisofs to genisoimage to wodim,
finally to cdrecord cdrecord 2.01.01a37. I manually installed cdrecord
2.01.01a37 from smake. I seem to be able to create the first track with
mkisofs and burn with cdrecord. It is mountable and readable. But when I
get ready to do the second track with cdrecord -msinfo dev=3,0,0; it
states:
cdrecord: Cannot read first writable address
----------------------------
Here is what I've done. For the first track:
mkisofs -v -o track_01.iso -R /media/sdc1/backups
Next I burn:
cdrecord -v speed=2 dev=2,0,0 -eject -multi -tao -data track_01.iso
I noticed that durning the burn:
Starting to write CD/DVD/BD at speed 4 in real SAO mode for multi session.
I thought it was a bad DVD drive, so I switched it with another, and I
still received SAO, even though I stated -multi and -tao.
Finally I do my:
cdrecord -msinfo dev=3,0,0
And get:
cdrecord: Cannot read first writable address
Doing a cdrecord: cdrecord -minfo dev=3,0,0:

I can mount this. I'm new to all of this, but I'm assuming it is closing
the disc. I am open to suggestions. Thanks
