[Bug 149076] Re: [SOLVED] I can't write a cd

[FireMan300]

** Summary changed:

- I can't write a cd
+ [SOLVED] I can't write a cd

** Description changed:

+ If you see any of the symptoms of the various outputs in the comments
+ the solution is as follows:
  
+ "You are not using cdrecord but a defective fork called "wodim".
+ 
+ wodim is a dead fork from a 5 year old version of cdrecord with
+ bugs added that never have been in the original.
+ 
+ The device or resource busy message is a result from such a bug.
+ 
+ Note that you also do not use mkisofs but "genisoimage" from the
+ same "fork". Note that "genisoimage" creates defective ISO filesystem
+ images.
+ 
+ I recommend to use the original software as there are no known bugs
+ in the original software and as the original software added many new
+ features during the past 6 years."
+ 
+ Get the real program:
+ 
+ ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/

  Hi,
  
  After my upgrade from feisty to gutsy on my imac g3 , I tried to burn a

  work. I'm using an external usb disc writer. K3B has the following debug
