Thank you to those who replied with assistance. However, I now believe that I got the source of the problem wrong, and I believe that the problem is kind of solved. I had downloaded, after the above, the ISO images for the 7.6.0 live LXDE amd 64 and i386 systems, and, copied them to a USB drive (after ruining about half a dozen blank DVD's, but not with these two particular ISO files), and, used that in a laptop, and wrote to blank DVD's in the laptop, without any problem., I have then used the i386 one, to boot on my celeron laptop, an HP/Compaq NX5000, to test the writing of the ISO file to the DVD, and, it kind of booted okay (the only way that it would boot, was with the 486 option, and, not with the 686 option, and I believe the Celeron to be a 686 based Celeron, but, I may be wrong). So, in short, the problem appears to have been that the DVD drive in my "desktop" workstation has suddenly failed (I have not encountered a CD or DVD drive, failing, before this, that I remember - maybe floppy drives, and Hard Disk Drives, but, not cd or DVD drives). What alerted me to the possibility, was when I tried to play a video DVD borrowed from our local public library, in my "desktop" workstation, and it would not play it. The problem is, as said, "kind of" solved, as have not replaced the optical disk drive in the computer, and, probably will not, as the design of the computer, is lousy for modifying the computer, unlike the IBM PS/2 architecture, that was a pleasure to work with (slide components out, slide in their replacements, all easily accessible); this one seems to need an electronics engineer, to do anything with its components.

Re: Problem with Debian 7.5 i386 lxde LIVE ISO and Brasero
Hi, Bret Busby's Brasero: > SCSI error on write(14096,16): [5 21 02] Invalid address This is a problem between libburn and drive. libburn is supposed to write a sequence of consequtive block addresses in steps of 16. The drive perceives block address 14096 as out of sequence. Since libburn and drives usually do not have this problem, we are facing an individual defect here. Having the choice between an individually bad libburn and an individually bad drive, i now point to the drive. It seems ill. I am the developer of libburn. If you suspect that libburn is the culprit, then we can examine the data traffic between software and drive, by help of my command line program xorriso. In this case send me the file /tmp/xorriso.log which gets produced by this very verbous program run: xorriso -as cdrecord \ dev=/dev/sr0 -V -v debian-live-7.5.0-i386-lxde-desktop.iso \ 2>&1 | tee -i /tmp/xorriso.log (I assume your drive has address /dev/sr0. If you have more than one drive, it could be sr1, sr2, ...) Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Ahh, now you're in my neck of the woods. Try this: growisofs -Z /dev/dvd=debian-live-7.5.0-i386-lxde-desktop.iso If you have a /dev/dvd, the preceding should burn the iso quite well. Unless, of course, you have some kind of weird problem, in which case you can email us back with the results.

Check the MD5Sum. To eliminate brasero from the equation, I would see what wodim thinks. e.g. wodim -v -dummy speed=4 /path/to/file.iso -dummy will ensure the laser is turned off so that you don't create another coaster. You *may* need to pass the device if wodim doesn't detect it, with 'dev=/dev/sdx' or 'dev=/dev/srx' (replace x with right value.) If there are no errors, (the -v means verbose) then remove the '-dummy' option to see if it burns properly. I would first check the MD5Sum, though. -- "If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." --- Malcolm X -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
