Bug#265747: (no subject)
On FC5, the same problem currently exists with cdrecord. I read
elsewhere that cdrdao would work, and upon testing it turns out that it
can write a blanked CD-RW, but it can't blank it. Attempting a minimal
blank returns a false success, but upon checking it's not blanked after
all. A full blank causes a hang, but Ctrl-C eventually gets the prompt
back. In no case does cdrdao cause system log errors like cdrecord. It
should be checked what Debian's behavior is regarding cdrdao - it might
shed light on the kernel bug.
