Hello all, When I write a cdrom using xcdroast, everything works Ok, until the verification. The verification goes up to 99% (always!) and then complains of errors. This only occurs for some CD-ROM images (possibly > 500Mb, but I am not really sure). Any ideas? What is so bad about the last 1% of the CD-writing process???? (no - I can't even test my CD-ROM software with the original commercial software, as I have lost the required registration code, and the manufacture has said "I am sorry, but we can't help you"). :-( pluto# cdrecord -checkdrive -dev 0,6,0 Cdrecord release 1.6 Copyright (C) 1995-1998 Jörg Schilling scsidev: '0,6,0' scsibus: 0 target: 6 lun: 0 Device type : Removable CD-ROM Version : 2 Response Format: 2 Capabilities : SYNC LINKED Vendor_info : 'MATSHITA' Identifikation : 'CD-R CW-7502 ' Revision : '4.10' Device seems to be: Matsushita CW-7502.

I really doubt that is a relevant. The computer seems to be able to write to the CD fast enough (ie the buffer is always 100% - 99% full). Thanks in advance, -- Brian May <bam@snoopy.apana.org.au>
