At least you can get scanbus to give you a read out all I get is no such file
try "cdrecord -scanbus" which is what I had just done? Something is whacked
from my download, I'm sure of it now, cause I can't remember for sure but I
thing the second disk was d/l'd using EI explorer, don't do that, it screws
things up. Need to use netscape if you can.
