In that case, then, it's probably not a bad image. mkisofs shouldn't give your burner any trouble whatsoever. Also, somebody suggested the following on this list before to check to see if an image is bad: (Attributed to Eduard Bloch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) mount -o loop image.iso /mnt tar c /mnt | wc If tar reports any kind of read error, then you know that the underlying image is bad. > the drive never reported a buffer underflow error.

That's weird that cdrecord doesn't want to do DAO on it. cdrecord does support -nofix and -fix, so maybe you could try burning it with -nofix, and then going back afterwords and running -fix separately. That way, the drive might have an easier time fixating if it's a separate operation and has has time to reset? Total speculation here on my part; I'm not a burning pro.
