Hi All,
We just upgraded all of our computers to the latest Redhat kernel update, kernel-2.4.20-13.8. Now we have two computers that freeze-up whenever we run cdrecord or cdrecord-prodvd. Cdrecord will write the entire CD or DVD, then it freezes up somewhere in the fixating stage.
Writing CDs and DVDs worked fine on previous versions of the kernel.
When the computer crashes, it puts something like this in /var/log/messages: kernel: scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 2469615, scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 Test Unit Ready 00 00 00 00 00
One of the drives is a Pioneer DVD-A04 and the other is a Sony CRX160E.
We are running cdrtools-cdrecord-1.11a33-1
cdrecord-prodvd-1.11b19-i586-pc-linux-gnu
Anyone have a fix or workaround?
I saw something similar. Any cdrecord command would lock up and could not be killed. On a reboot, I got a message about sda1 (which was a USB CF Reader). I removed the reader, and cdrecord worked fine. Try dmesg, or look at /var/log/messages again to see if you have some other piece of hardware that's having problems.
