[Debburn-devel] Problem with fixation of multi-session disc

[Ralf Schlatterbeck]

Package: cdrkit

I'm trying to create a multi-session cd with wodim 
Version: 9:1.1.2-1 (Debian Sarge). I can successfully record and fixate
several audio-tracks in tao-mode:

sudo wodim dev=ATA:0,0,0 -v -tao -speed=8 driveropts=burnproof fs=16m
  -multi -pad -audio cd/Thema1.wav cd/Thema2.wav cd/Thema3.wav
  cd/Thema4.wav cd/Thema5.wav cd/Thema6.wav

And then record a data track, but this fails in the fixation step:

sudo wodim dev=ATA:0,0,0 -v -tao -speed=8 driveropts=burnproof fs=16m
-multi -data cd/x.iso
(I've burned two coasters, one with and one without the -multi option on
the second session, this option doesn't make a difference)

The error message is:

Retrying the fixation step with -fix produces the same problem:

The disk is unusable as a data disk (mounting fails).

My question: Is this a problem of the drive or bug in the software? How
can I tell? This is my first attempt at burning multi-session cds, so I
can't tell if the drive is the problem.

Additionally specifying -sao when fixating doesn't error out, but
doesn't produce a readably disk either:

sudo wodim dev=ATA:0,0,0 -v -sao -multi -fix
