Quoting myself. "Under Linux kernel 2.4 growisofs counts on sr_mod to check the status byte." Clarifying note. Under 2.4 growisofs counts on sr_mod to check the status byte and terminate corresponding ioctl with error code. Does growisofs check for return value? Yes. > and for this reason is not aware of the problem. Quoting myself. "There is no reason whatsoever to believe that sr_mod doesn't do the job, because if it didn't, growisofs would hardly work at all, not even with IDE units."
