[Debburn-devel] AHCI mode causes DVD-R disks to fail burning.

[Josiah Jensen]

It does not seem to cause an error.  It merely hangs with no indication
that anything is wrong.  After a time, the mouse will stop working, and we
have to reboot the server.
I will repeat my steps and see if I can find any log messages from that
timeframe.

When we switch the mode to IDE this problem goes away.  But obviously we
would prefer AHCI.

Thank you,

Hi,

> Have you seen anything like this?

Not quite the same. Nevertheless i had on a system with
GA-MA74GM-S2H a burn problem with eSATA which vanished after
i reduced transmission speed from 3000 Mbit/s to 1500.

This is a very unspecific remedy. So it might help in your
case too.

How do your misburns express themselves, after all ?
Any messages from the burn program ?
Any related messages in the system log ?


Have a nice day :)
