The problem is that the drive complains that the format command contains invalid parameters. My patch is unrelated to this problem so it will not make any difference. I don't know why it fails. Does it work if you try to format a smaller part of the disc? (cdrwtool -d /dev/hdc -m 1024). Does packet writing work if you use a disc that has been formatted in another OS? -- Peter Osterlund - petero2@telia.com http://w1.894.telia.com/~u89404340
