Note that although speed 4 was commanded, speed 48 was actually used to do the write. I think that this is a problem, since my CD-R blanks are only rated to 40x. I also tried speed=2. Same problem, and finished in the same amount of time that speed=4 gave. Is it possible that cdrecord reads the speed but does not accept it? This makes things hard, since the writing is unreliable and many of the CDROMS generated with cdrecord fail linux mediacheck.
try speed=8
I never tried 4 but I noticed that on my burner -
speed=8 works speed=12 and cdrecord uses 8 speed=16 works speed=20 and cdrecord uses 16 speed=24 works
Seems that at least for me, cdrecord only likes multiples of 8.
Also - try burning with -pad and -dao
cdrecord -dev=/dev/hdd -speed=8 -pad -dao -v FC3-whatever.iso
CD's I burn that way pass media check on some systems that fail if I don't use -pad and -dao

Interestingly, burning DVD's for me only works at 4x even though my burner and media support 8x. (IE specify 8x and it burns at 4x)
