Re: solaris cdrecord BH08LS20 drive BD-R problems
Thanks again Jörg. I have not given up on solaris yet.

Do you remember the bug tracking ID so I can look at it?
Perhaps someone has worked that issue for the opensolaris project,
but more than likely the fixes would not work on sparc hardware.

Yes, especially since it does not work quite right for linux either.
The BH08LS20 drive has SATA interface, and the enclosure uses
an adapter with the JMicron JM20336 USB - SATA bridge.
Now looking for a different adapter for experimentation.
Perhaps solaris10 is trying to send SMART commands to the drive?
The wiki for smartmontools says this is tricky for USB bridges.

Another idea: could AHCI mode be a factor here?
I found some interesting reading at the linux-ide archives:
