At the end of growisofs, before cmp? Sorry that I wasn't clearer. The script ejected the disk after the script's cmp failed, not before. | You could try adding "eject -t /dev/cdrw" between growisofs | and the cmp command. That might work, even though the drive is already closed. The eject might introduce a kind of delay that would get over the brief "no media found" state. I have a superstitious model of DVD and CD handling because so many odd things happen. [A different example of an oddity: on Ubuntu 10.04, we are having trouble burning DVD images with K3B. It seems as if "something" is mounting the almost-burnt image before "fixation" and locking K3B out when it tries to finish the disk. This didn't happen on Ubuntu 8.04. I'm still trying to figure out if Fedora 13 has that problem but got sidetracked with the problem I've just reported and also a DVD+rw disk that went bad and made the experiments fail.] -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
