This reports that the Next Writable Address is 0 and that 0x3fb000 (=4173824) blocks are free. > RESERVE TRACK > 53 00 00 00 00 00 3b 1a 60 00 > xorriso : UPDATE : Thank you for being patient.

Working since 346 seconds. > +++ key=3 asc=0Ch ascq=00h (346548 ms) This command shall reserve 0x3b1a60 (= 3873376) blocks. After the irregularly long time of 346 seconds it fails with the error code for "Write Error". Normally this is an indication for drive or medium problems. > growisofs fails on the DVD+R/DL too Do you see an indication of the failed MMC command and the error code there ? Is the medium still blank after the failure ? $ xorriso -outdev /dev/hda ... Media status : is blank ... -------------------------------------------------------------------- You can avoid the RESERVE TRACK command by keeping xorriso from knowing the size of your ISO image in advance: $ cat big.fat.iso | xorriso -as cdrecord -v dev=/dev/hda -eject - It has to be feared that this will fail at some other command. E.g. one of the WRITE commands which transfer the data to the drive. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
