bad burn with Samsung SH-S183L

[Yaniv Kamay]

Binary package hint: wodim

ubuntu 7.10-beta amd64

writing cd using Samsung SH-S183L and wodim/"Nautilus cd burner" result in bad cd.

burn of ubuntu-7.10-beta-desktop-amd64.iso gave the following results:
    1. reinserting the media gave the following error "Cannot mount volume. invalid
    mount option when attempting to mount the volume"
    2. the cd is not bootable.

burn of some files, using Nautilus cd burner, also result in bad cd .

burn with winxp works fine.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 RC or later?

[Yaniv Kamay (yaniv-k)]

still reproducible in 8.10

burn iso image on Ubuntu using Nautilus cd burner result in bad cd
burn the same iso using DeepBurner on windows is OK

[Dimitrios Symeonidis (azimout)]

yaniv, is this still an issue for you with the latest ubuntu version? what if you use brasero?

[Schily (schilling-fokus)]

If the CD is not mountable or bootable, this is most likely a problem that results
from the fact that you do not use the original software but a defective fork.

In your specific case, the problem is not really from wodim (although cdrecord
would by default write in SAO mode and this way make the whole media readable).

Your problem is most likely a result of the well known bugs in genisoimage.

Please use the real mkisofs that is known to work.

See http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/linux-dist.html for a rough overview on the
bugs in the fork.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I noticed that the package version your bugging is updated in Maverick. Please update via www.ubuntu.com repost a detailed error report, and update the bug status. Thanks!
