Hi, (For some reason my subscription to this bug does not work. Better Cc: me.)
> I guess this backup tool > creates iso's witch are not compattible with DVD file system. > (Universal Disk Format (UDF), ISO/IEC 13346 and/or ECMA The error message originally stems from the drive's firmware. It is specified in SCSI part MMC as key 4, asc 0x09, ascq 0x01, but regrettably not much background info is given. The error name suggests that the laser beam lost its way while writing its spiral track. This should not be related to the data content of the blocks written. Regardless whether ISO 9660, UDF, ext3, tar or whatever format is represented in those blocks. UDF is prescribed only for Video DVD and Video Blu-ray, so that the player devices know where to find the movies. But it is perfectly ok to write ISO 9660 to DVD or Blu-ray. I do this every day by my own program xorriso. And after all, the name "growisofs" stems from a close affinity of dvd+rw-tools to ISO 9660 resp. program mkisofs. That said, if you really can reproduce that only this one filesystem image fails, and that this happens with any DVD you try, then your drive's firmware has a flaw. I could not find out what filesystem format is written by mondorescue. Well, if it has the suffix ".iso" ... What do shell commands "file" and "isoinfo" tell about it ? file /media/DEBIAN-BACKUP-2/Mondo-ISO/mondorescue-1.iso isoinfo -d -i /media/DEBIAN-BACKUP-2/Mondo-ISO/mondorescue-1.iso > (Universal Disk Format (UDF) [...] ECMA-167 Additionally to ECMA-167 one needs UDF-2.60 specs. Both are available for free. > For DVD-RW: ISO 9660 ISO 9660 specs are available for free as ECMA-119.
