I'm running:
> sally# uname -a > FreeBSD sally.keebler.homeunix.net 4.10-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE > #3: Mon Dec 27 18:45:53 EST 2004 > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/compile/C3 i386
And I recently installed a DVD burnerso that I could do system backups:
> sally# dmesg|grep cd1 > acd1: DVD-R <TSSTcorpCD/DVDW TS-H552B> at ata1-slave PIO4 > acd1: DVD-R <TSSTcorpCD/DVDW TS-H552B> at ata1-slave PIO4 > cd1 at ata1 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 > cd1: <TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H552B TS03> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device > cd1: 16.000MB/s transfers > cd1: cd present [1 x 2048 byte records]
I know there are "better" backup solutions, but this system is for home use and I just want to get backups going. Eventually (e.g. as soon as I figure out how) I will be doing proper dumps, but for now I'm pouring things off into cd9660 filesystems.
I've been using growfs
> sally# growisofs --version > * growisofs by <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, version 5.19-1, > front-ending to mkisofs: mkisofs 2.0.3 (i386-unknown-freebsd4.10)
to do all this, and for the first disk, it did just fine. The problem is the *second* disk:
> sally# growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/cd1c=farm5.iso > Executing 'builtin_dd if=farm5.iso of=/dev/pass1 obs=32k seek=0' > /dev/pass1: "Current Write Speed" is 8.2x1385KBps. > 0/3085238272 ( 0.0%) @0x, remaining ??:?? > 0/3085238272 ( 0.0%) @0x, remaining ??:?? > 0/3085238272 ( 0.0%) @0x, remaining ??:?? > :-? the LUN appears to be stuck writing LBA=10h, retry in 0ms > :-[ [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with SK=2h/ASC=04h/ACQ=08h]: Resource > temporarily unavailable > :-( write failed: Resource temporarily unavailable > /dev/pass1: flushing cache > /dev/pass1: closing track > /dev/pass1: closing disc
When I take the ruined disk out, I can see the physical evidence of a short write, but the disk isn't mountable.
The best part of all is that once I replace the ruined media and rerun growisofs, the new disk burns flawlessly. Just to taunt me.
I am getting this result every single time.
I know very little about SCSI but my theory is that some sort of state is being set on the device but not cleared before the next disk is attempted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I will happily provide further information if you clue me on how to obtain it. Thanks.
