Hi,

Dave Platt:

I see this one in the code of growisofs.
Will have to study.

This one i will have to explore without growisofs guidance.

> capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) and so might require superuser

It might not be too large a caliber:
#define CDROMRESET              0x5312 /* hard-reset the drive */

It might last a few days before i come up with
experiments. I must try whether i can reproduce
the effect with re-writeable media here.

xorriso should be able to cope with the situation
without reloading, because it reads the same way
as it writes: SG_IO. No OS cache involved.

But i am unhappy about the system integrity with
that outdated cache.


Have a nice day :)
