xcdroast stalls at between 15 - 30% of read...
My PleXWriter 8423Ti is IDE and as hdd I could read data cd's and play music cds. But, I couldn't burn. I have used ide-scsi emulation and cdrecord recognizes the PleXWriter as scd0. My first test was to try to burn a copy of the Office52 subdir, about 250MB. I got an error which aborted the burn after about 64MB was written to the CDR. Then I tried the "Copy CD" function of xcdroast. At between 15-30% of reading the image off of the CD it stalls. I can watch xcdroast and cdrecord switching back and forth, using KDE System Guard. One sleeps while the other is running. Then both stay asleep. I've tried various speeds of reading and 8 gives the largest percentage, but no setting give 100%. Also, when I try to mount a data CD using mount -t iso8660 /dev/scd0 /cdrom it complains that /dev/scd0 is not a block device. mount -t vfat /dev/scd0 /cdrom gives the same error msg. What;s the problem? JLK
Jerry, I use Ricoh CD-R/RW RW7063A and had no problems with it so far. The drive is capable of 6x speed recording, but I recorded at 4x. Maybe my AMD 500 MHz CPU is not fast enough to feed the drive. I haven't tried anything besides cdrecord to write CDs. I usually try recording in dummy mode first ( -dummy parameter in cdrecord) The drive performs all data transfer but the laser stays off. I also tried to create RW CDs on this drive, and it worked too. I'm using ide-scsi emulation. I have the following line in my /etc/modules.conf to automatically load ide-scsi module: alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi Also I have append="hdd=ide-scsi" in my lilo.conf I'm using 2.4.2-4GB kernel. -Kastus On Tue, Mar 27, 2001 at 10:16:46PM -0600, Jerry Kreps wrote:

mmm... I have the same settings. It seems that no matter what reading speed I use the process gets interrupted and dies. JLK On Tuesday 27 March 2001 22:48, Konstantin (Kastus) Shchuka wrote:

Jerry Hate to say this but if it starts the read and fails you may have a hardware problem. Having had a number of CDR drives fail I now usually use cdrecord from the command line ouside of X. Have you tried that method ? Mike On Wednesday 28 March 2001 13:32, Jerry Kreps wrote:
