Thanks, Luigi, you rule OK! As I've said before, atapi-cd.c part of these
changes seems to be effectively NOOP with my TEAC's drive
acd0: CDRW <CD-W540E/1.0C> at ata1-master UDMA33
But burncd.c patch definitely works! It's output is somehow ugly:
root at lion# burncd -f /dev/acd0 -s 10 blank
blanking CD - 17sec 0 % done -1 (interim status)
blanking CD - 39sec 0 % done 0 (final status)
root at lion#
but the operation finishes w/o pressing Ctrl-C. Now I can use aggregate
commands such as 'blank data xxx fixate':
root at lion# burncd -f /dev/acd0 -s 10 blank data memtest86+-1.65.iso fixate
blanking CD - 39sec 0 % done 0
next writeable LBA 0
writing from file memtest86+-1.65.iso size 900 KB
written this track 900 KB (100%) total 900 KB
fixating CD, please wait..
burncd: ioctl(CDRIOCFIXATE): Input/output error
root at lion#
Fixate still issues 'ioctl(CDRIOCFIXATE): Input/output error', but AFAICT
the resulting media is OK.
Thank you again for digging this problem!
