Hi there guys,

Many apologies for the content matter of this msg; I've tried to avoid
posting for as long as possible, but quite frankly, I haven't managed
to find a solution anywhere on the net in the various archives
postings that purport to deal with similar issues.

Here's the situation: OpenBSD 3.4 Nov03 release, SONY CRX140E CDRW
drive. I can mount cd9660 file systems no problems - it's the burning
issue alone that's at issue; having created numerous coasters, it's
pretty much an economic necessity that I ask for help here ;-)

Essentially, when attempting to burn either .iso or .wavs[TAO or DAO -
same problem] with cdrecord [cdrdao was also tried as a (futile)
backup attempt] i get as far as the writing stage (ie cdrecord
recognises the hardware, counts down, and starts the write) when it
throws up an error:

# cdrecord -dao speed=8 dev=/dev/rcd0c:0,0,0 *.wav

The scsi sendcmd() doesn't seem to want to work. The following gets
appended to dmesg [full output @ the end of the post] as a result of
the attempted write process:

cd0(atapiscsi0:0:0): Check Condition on opcode 0x0
SENSE KEY: Not Ready

SENSE KEY: Illegal Request
ASC/ASCQ: Illegal Field in CDB

But i'm afraid I'm not nearly proficient enough with OpenBSD atapscsi
internals to fully understand the implications of the error, and hence
the reasons behind it. I've tried with numerous discs and brands, and
know for a fact that the same version of cdrecord works, with the same
hardware, on NetBSD 1.6 and Linux 2.4.20 systems, so I can only draw
the conclusion that I have to look towards the atapiscsi configuration
as the source of the errors.

As I say, I can't seem to figure out the exact cause of the problem.
Clearly cdrecord is writing to the correct device, and since I can
read from the device via the atapiscsi adaptor, I can only assume that
for whatever reason it's not willing to accept write requests /
sendcmd()s.

many thanks,
Marc
