It's not clear what command it's complaining about that has failed.=20 =46irst it says that test unit ready succeeded, then it says that the=20 drive reported a "medium not present" error. Is there any way to enable= =20 any more debugging in cdrecord? If you retry the burning attempt does=20 the same thing happen?
