Using the NetBSD-1.3.3/i386 package for cdrecord-1.6.1 I am having the 
following problems when cutting a CD. I was able to create 2 CD's without 
problem at 02:00 last night but now I constantly get the following errors 
almost immediately after
starting the recording.
I have not tried rebooting yet as this is a production server and my uptime 
is so high I really hate to reboot it ;-) I am trying
to get this to work as it turns out that SCSI HP CD Writers are not 
supported under NT Server, just Workstation, 98 and
95 so I thought I would show those Windoze people ;-).

My questions are:
	1) Will V1.4.1 help this in any way ?
	2) Will a newer 'cdrecord' executable help ? I see V1.8.x on the web site.
	3) The guy who wrote this thing really slams the SCSI implementation, are 
these issues
	because of some of his concerns ? Are they going away once a new PI SCSI 
layer is in place,
	or if NetBSD switches to CAMS (spell ?) ? Oh please lets not start a mass 
mailing over SCSI
	re: this thread ;-).

Thanks

Scott...


The configuration is as follows:

NetBSD/i386 V1.3.3
	- Compaq Prosignia (P2-300)
	- 160MB RAM
	- triple SCSI controllers
		- dual 2940UW with 2 Seagate Barr 9GB drives on each bus
		- one old 'aic' based Adaptec holding a HP DAT24x6 changer and the HP 
9200 CD writer
	- IDE Compaq CD-Rom

Using cdrecord-v1.6.1 from the NetBSD packages collection for V1.3.3/i386 I 
get the following error from the following file:
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
-------
# cat burn_cdimage1test.sh

DEST="/dev/cd0d"
IMAGE="/tmp/cdimage1.raw"
/usr/local/bin/cdrecord -v speed=2 dev=${DEST} ${IMAGE}
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now executing it like this:

------------------------------------------------------------------------  
-------
sh burn_cdimage1test.sh > log.out 2> err.out
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
-------

I get this dumped to the screen:
------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the err.out file I get:
