my further adventures with the Philips PCRW804 CD writer

[Seth Gordon]

When I put a disk in the tray and type "cdrecord -load", it blinks and
clicks for about thirty seconds, pauses, and then gives a
"CD/DVD-Recorder not ready" error.  If, after that, I try "cdrecord
-toc", it immediately ejects the disk, and then says "No disk / Wrong
disk!"

This happens with a Maxell CD-RW, an Imation CD-R, and a standard CD.

I did "cdrecord -V -load &> cdrecord.err" with a standard CD in the
open tray; you can see the output at
"http://ropine.com/foo-cdrecord-err.txt".

"Rav would never cross a bridge when an idolator was on it; he said, 'Maybe he
will be judged and I will be taken with him.'  Shmuel would only cross a
bridge when an idolator was on it; he said, 'Satan cannot rule two nations [at
once].'  Rabbi Yannai would examine [the bridge] and cross."  --Shabbat 32a
