Hello, I'm using cdrecord 1.10 on a DEC Alpha LX164 with a Tekram 53c875 based SCSI card driving a Yamaha 4416 CD burner.
I have been burning many cd-r's recently (Memorex 80 minute 16x Phthalocyanine), and have mounted the cd's after recording to see if they mounted correctly, and also compared /dev/cdrom's md5sum to the image file. So at that instance the cd's were readable. Several days later, when I wanted to mount the cd's again, I get the following messages:- marsupilami:# mount /dev/cdrom /cdrom/ mount: error while guessing filesystem type mount: you must specify the filesystem type marsupilami:# dd if=/dev/cdrom|hexdump 0+0 records in 0+0 records out marsupilami:# mount /dev/cdrom /cdrom/ -t iso9660 mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only I/O error: dev 0b:00, sector 64 isofs_read_super: bread failed, dev=0b:00, iso_blknum=16, block=16 mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom, or too many mounted file systems (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?) The cds have been stored in their cases and not handled in the meantime. This problem happens on the 2.4.16 and 2.4.17 kernels I have installed on my 'unstable' system. In fact, this looks like bug 105291, which was reported in May. I don't know if it's the kernel's or cdrecord's fault. Has anyone else had this problem and come up with a fix, or does anyone know if and how data can be recovered from this situation? The data on the CDs were backups of my audio cds, so I didn't lose anything (yet). Thanks for any help, Michael. -- "I'm not just a server, but I'm also a client."
