1. Problem with reading CD-R/W written in TAO mode
I am using Mandrake kernel 2.4.18-13mdk (based on 2.4.19-pre7). There is
strange problem in raw-reading some CD-R/Ws (e.g. to verify checksum
like md5sum /dev/cdrom) reported by several people - read aborts with
I/O error at the end.
Experimenting with different CD-R/Ws lead to conclusion that CD-Rs
written in DAO are read correctly and those written in TAO (and possibly
multisession) give an error. Printed CD-Rs never show any error. It does
not seem to matter what program has been used to create CD - identical
problem appears using mkisofs/cdrecord and Nero (I cannot verify DAO
with cdrecord because it is not supported for my CDD-3610).
My first thought was that for some reason wrong CD size has been
reported, so I added printk to cdrom_read_toc() to verify the real size
it gets (toc->capacity). To my surprise bot DAO and TAO written CD-RWs
report identical capacity but reading disk written in TAO consistently
ends with error. There are no problems using both CDs as far as I can
tell.
Here are results of writing the same image:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22118400 May 4 14:24 mindi.iso
once in DAO/close disk and once in TAO/leave disk open:

10800+0 records in
10800+0 records out

dd: reading `/dev/cdrom': Input/output error

and in dmesg:
