Hi! Burning CDs with the latest cdrtools (same behaviour with a13) I always get one unreadable sector. This sector is always one of the last and it's always only one defect sector. It's the same with two different CDR media (Kodak Ultima 80 (1-24x) and Memorex 80 16x) and two burners (Teac CDR-55S and ACER 20/10). When I searched the net I found some older messages which said something about read-ahead bug and about the -pad option. Using -pad or -nopad doesn't change anything either. There are no error messages from cdrecord. Burned with windows I don't have that problems. My system is: Linux plailis_lfs 2.4.18-ac1
