I have a problem doing a simulation write in mandrake's xcdroast 4.0.4 .
I copy data cd to harddrive under Duplicate CD. Then attempt a simulation write and it hangs after,
imput buffer ready BURBFREE is off, Turning BURNFREE ON, sending Cue sheet, Writing pregap for track 1-150 starting to read write track at sector 0,
in write window it says, Track 3% Total 3% Fifo 95% Writer-Buffer 99% speed 103.5x (looks odd to me)
As a result of the hung xcdroast, I have to, kill -9 xcdroast which gets rid of xcdroast but with an active scsi-buss which on shutdown the system hates, not to mention what it may be doing to the writer itself.
Not too happy about this situation, it makes no odds if either writer or dvd is used to read original data track. It seems to me there is a problem here.

John, Xcdroast is only the GUI for some command line programs like
mkisofs and cdrecord and cdrdao. I am sure the best way to kill the
whole thing would be a ps aux |grep cd and then killing the stuff
mentioned. but that just goes for killing something that you should not
have to kill. have you tried any of the other GUIs for cdburning? have
you tried it from the command line?

Usually a fix time of 0.005s spells trouble but here we are in dummy mode, so I guess that is OK. Everything looks satisfactory to me.
So then, if mkisofs and cdrecord in dummy mode performs, then I guess the problem lies with xcdroast ?
