Re: BD-R formatting help
Hi,

That should be young enough to run the drive
anyway. But my 2.4 kernels never reported
errors directly to the user space terminal.
The errors reported are probably due to the
uninitialized status of the BD-R.

It would be nice if it would tell which sector
and what ASC and ASCQ numbers came with sense 0x03.
> [27887.746641] hdc: error code: 0x70 sense_key: 0x03 asc: 0x57 ascq: 0x00
That's a bit more informative:
3 57 00 UNABLE TO RECOVER TABLE-OF-CONTENTS
Question to myself, MMC specs and all others:
Shoult it have a TOC at that time ?

Grmpf. Why does it know the error and not the
command which caused it ? (This question goes
towards heaven.)

This mass output does not look like typical
dvd+rw-tools behavior.
I assume you have disabled all automounters and
similar programs which could access the drive.
So this could come from the device driver trying
to learn about the present media.
Does this kernel log protesting start as soon
as you insert the media into the drive or does
it start only when you run dvd+rw-format ?
Have a nice day :)
