Cannot open SCSI driver. I don't know yet if this is a general readcd problem or just a problem with the ports version, however readcd -scanbus fails here as well. cdrecord -scanbus still works.

A pure shot in the dark -- but I suspect the read on your drive may not be sensitive enough to read RW disks. Of course if it can write them one would expect it is designed to be able to read them -- but it may be out of spec. or have deteriorated since manufacture.

You could use readcd's c2scan option to check if your CD-RWs are OK. readcd is part of (/usr/ports/sysutils/cdrtools/) if you don't have atapicam in your kernel you have to kldload it.

Problems reading CDRW after writing
Hello - I am running FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE as of Dec-15-2005 on a P4 system. I have a CDRW drive attached, which identifies as follows: acd0: CDRW at ata1-slave UDMA33 I wish to use this device to produce CDRW backup disks periodically. I use the following commands to produce the backup: burncd erase sleep 2 # needed to avoid READY error tar czf - ... | burncd data - fixate This appears to work fine, from the perspective of the output of the commands, e.g. I see output like: blanking CD - 100 % done next writeable LBA 0 writing from stdin written this track 633420 KB total 633420 KB fixating CD, please wait.. My problem is that attempts to read the data back, always fail: # tar tzf /dev/acd0 tar: Error opening archive: Error reading '/dev/acd0': Input/output error # ls -l /dev/*cd* crw-r- 1 root operator0, 93 Jan 3 10:33 /dev/acd0 crw-r- 1 root operator0, 127 Dec 30 14:26 /dev/acd0t01 No errors are shown in /var/log/messages. I have also tried writing an ISO9660 image and mounting it, with similar problems at mount time. The above said, I am able to create CD-R data disks and mount them or otherwise use them. I have tried several different CD-RW media, and played with -s (the media is rated as 12x), but have observed no changes. Can anyone suggest solutions?
