Hello, My son gave me a package of Memorex Ultra Speed CD-RW blanks for Christmas. I was going to burn an ISO on my 5.3-STABLE system but ran into a brick wall. cdrecord tells me that it's "Trying to use ultra high speed medium on improper writer." I've used "MultiSpeed 1x2x4x" media and "1x-4x Compatible" media in the past with no problems. Here's a transcript of the failed session: jericho# cdrecord -v dev=3,0 blank=all 4.11-RC2-i386-disc2.iso cdrecord: No write mode specified. cdrecord: Asuming -tao mode. cdrecord: Future versions of cdrecord may have different drive dependent defaults. cdrecord: Continuing in 5 seconds...
