Tearin Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 I am having issues on the formating stage. I tried to set a log file, but that appears to not be working or it is hidden somewhere. in anycase I will explain what I see. I am using a Sony DRU-500A (usb) drive. I selected my image and blicked burn and was prompted with the media not being formated and would I like to format the media. I say yes and at the bottom of the screen it says 0% erasing disk till it error with the following message: I/O error! Device [0:0:0] Sony DvD RW DRU-500A 1.0e E: (usb) ScsiStatus 0x02 Interpretation: Check Condition CDB: 2a Interpretation: Write (10) -Sectors 0 -31 Sense area: (lots of numbers) Interpretatio: Medium not formatted Thanks Chris
LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 If the drive isn't formatting, it means it doesn't support the media you're using. The 500A is ancient now so that doesn't really surprise me. Try updating the firmware to v 2.1a http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=302 If it still fails once you've done that, try getting some other discs.
dbminter Posted February 28, 2006 Posted February 28, 2006 Let's see, if memory serves me correctly, the following "brands" worked for me with the 500a: Optodisc 2x DVD-RW Optodisc 4x DVD-RW HP DVD+RW Maxell DVD+RW Maxell DVD-RW As for the Manufacturer ID's on the discs, like I can remember.
