Is this with a disk written using rcd0d ?
Is the drive
a PATA drive connected directly to a
PATA controller?
a PATA drive connected via a PATA-to-USB
adapter?
something else? (SATA, SCSI, ...)
Have you tried writing a disk using
growisofs -Z /dev/rcd0d=test.iso
Then check with
dd if=/dev/rcd0d of=/var/tmp/some_filename bs=2k count=48
cmp test.iso /var/tmp/some_filename
rm /var/tmp/some_filename
Are you using media that is recommended for your
make & model of drive?
