How odd! I've never had a failure from Memorex. Could it be your burning technique? ;-)

alias mkcdimg='mkisofs -r -o cd_image' (mkisofs-2.01.01-0.a01.3mdk)
Simply to make a proper image on the HDD, 'mkcdimg <name of file or directory>'
alias bdcd='cdrecord -v -eject driveropts=burnfree speed=24 dev=ATA:1,1,0 -data'
(cdrecord-2.01.01-0.a01.4mdk, media an burner are both > 48x)
IOW's for the gui impaired, simply: 'mkcdimg <whatever>'
followed by 'bdcd cd_image'
(with latest 2.6.x kernels this should be done as root)Quick, simple, accurate an I know what's goin on
Maybe "Memorex" is sellin you different manufacturer's media than they do to me. MOF I'm positive about it. Since like all other "name brands" they only pass on 3rd party manufacturers media, whatever they can procure the cheapest. An that varies with every spindle you might buy, even within the spindle.
Or is the use of '-atip' beyond the scope of your twiki ?
cdrecord dev=ATA:?,?,? -atip (with a blank in the burner)
?'s determined from
cdrecord dev=ATA -scanbus
(don't use dev=ATAPI)

Most all the above varies from past 7.x, 8.x, 9.x, even 10.x versions, due to Mandrake an kernel, cdrecord and cdrdao, mkisofs an other improvements an changes. Often not kept up with many, specially those injecting their mistaken impressions into the 'Community twiki'.
