hi all and *especially jörg s., long-term initiator of cdrecord and

two weeks ago i asked on this list 'what is better': cdrecord or wodim. on
one of the responses i answered that the most recent version of
cdrecord/cdr-tools completely damaged two brandnew cdrom's. jörg asked me
for more info: and here comes some.
1. only one cd/dvd-burner om my machine produced this undesirable effect. a
couple of other burners worked flawlessly with the most recent bêta of jörg
sch.
so it could be that jörg did not make this beta recognize this burner: see

Right! Neither cdrecord or wodim can burn to a _Hard Disk_.
where do you get this? He provided no info on what command he used and
if you look, hdb is clearly an optical drive... are you drinking too
much coffee? ;)
