Hi,

Can anyone help? I have been struggling with this problem for ages, RTFM
etc. hasn't resolved it for me.

MDK9.1. Using cdrecord on the CLI.
My Sony CD-writer writes happily to a Toshiba CD-RW, multi-session ,etc.
no problem; but I cannot write anything to a CD-R (I've tried Sony
Supremas, Kodak Ultima 80, Packard Bell 1-32x).

The messages I get are all minor variations on the following, and the
commands minor variations on
"cdrecord -v speed=2 dev=0,0,0 -data image-name" (burnfree ON,OFF;
multi, no multi,etc)

What the h**l is going on?

"cdrecord: OPC failed" I believe it is saying that the drive has failed. That could mean anything. Maybe the drive isn't set up right for cdrecord to work with it. or maybe the driver doesn't work with your make and model.

First thing I would do is in a terminal,
