<b><a name="tao">3.1 "Warning: 2 sectors missing at the end of the disc"</a></b><p>
|
|
This warning appears with CD media written in "TAO" (track at once) mode.
|
|
Some drives report an image size which is 2 sectors too large for such media,
|
|
producing 2 pseudo read errors at the end of the medium
|
|
which do <i>not</i> mean data loss in this case.<p>
|
|
|
|
Since the writing mode can not be determined from the medium, dvdisaster assumes
|
|
a "TAO" CD if exactly the last two sectors are unreadable, and trims the image
|
|
accordingly. It is up to you to decide whether this is okay. You can
|
|
advise dvdisaster to treat these sectors as real read errors by using the
|
|
--dao option or
|
|
the preferences tab for reading/scanning.<p>
|
|
|
|
To avoid these problems, consider using the "DAO / Disc at once" (sometimes
|
|
also called "SAO / Session at once") mode for writing single session media.

<b><a name="block">3.2 Program blocks right after invocation</a></b><p>
|
|
Using old Linux kernel versions (kernel 2.4.x) the program occasionally
|
|
blocks right after the start and before any actions are
|
|
carried out. It can not be terminated using Ctrl-C or "kill -9".<p>
|
|
|
|
Eject the medium to make the program terminate. Insert the medium again
|
|
and wait until the drive recognizes the medium and spins down.
|
|
Calling dvdisaster again should work now.

<b><a name="crc">3.3 What does "CRC error, sector: n" mean?</a></b><p>
|
|
The respective sector could be read, but the checksum of its contents does
|
|
not match the value noted in the error correction file. Some possible causes are:<p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The image has been mounted with write permission and
|
|
was therefore altered (typical evidence: CRC errors in sector 64 and in
|
|
sectors 200 to 400).</li>
|
|
<li>The computer has some hardware problems, especially when
|
|
communicating with its mass storage devices.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you suspect technical problems, try creating another version of the image
|
|
and error correction files and <a href="howtos50.php">verify
|
|
them again</a>.
|
|
When the error disappears or surfaces at a different location,
|
|
your computer may be suffering from defective memory,
|
|
broken drive cabling, or wrong CPU/system frequency settings.

<b><a name="rw">3.4 Read errors or wrong image size with -RW/+RW/-RAM media</a></b><p>
|
|
|
|
Some drives report incorrect image sizes when -RW/+RW/-RAM media are used. Two common
|
|
cases are:<p>
|
|
|
|
<table>
|
|
<tr><td class="valignt">Problem:</td>
|
|
<td>The drive reports the size of the largest image ever written to the medium, not that
|
|
of the actual image.
|
|
</td></tr>
|
|
<tr><td class="valignt">Symptoms:</td>
|
|
<td>After erasing a medium it is written with a file sized about 100MB.
|
|
But the image read back is several GB long and contains the remainings
|
|
of older images.
|
|
</td></tr>
|
|
<tr><td><pre> </pre></td><td></td></tr>
|
|
<tr><td class="valignt">Problem:</td>
|
|
<td>The drive reports the maximum possible medium capacity (typically 2295104 sectors)
|
|
instead of the number of actually used sectors.
|
|
</td></tr>
|
|
<tr><td class="valignt">Symptoms:</td>
|
|
<td>When reading beyond a certain point of the medium, only read errors occur,
|
|
but all files on the medium are still readable and complete.
|
|
</td></tr>
|
|
</table><p>
|
|
|
|
Possible remedy:<p>
|
|
|
|
<table width="100%"><tr><td class="vsep"></td><td>
|
|
Activate the option for determining the
|
|
image size from the ISO/UDF file system or from the ECC/RS02 data.
|
|
</td></tr></table><p>
|
|
|
|
If the required ISO/UDF sectors are unreadable and you are using error correction files
|
|
to recover damaged media there are two possible workarounds:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Execute the <a href="howtos50.php">"Verify"</a> function with only
|
|
the error correction file being selected/given. Note down the correct image size
|
|
from the output and restrict the
|
|
reading range accordingly.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Simply read in the image with the incorrect (larger) size.
|
|
When invoking the <a href="howtos40.php#repair">"Fix"</a> function,
|
|
answer "OK" when you are asked whether the image should be truncated.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>

<b><a name="dvdrom">3.5 My self-written media is recognized as "DVD-ROM" and rejected.</a></b><p>
|
|
|
|
The medium book type has probably been set to "DVD-ROM". Typically, a drive
|
|
capable of writing the same media format is required for processing the medium
|
|
with dvdisaster.<p>
|
|
|
|
For example, a two-layered DVD+R with a wrong book type
|
|
may only be accepted on a burner which can write such media.<p>
|
|
|
|
Try another drive for reading images in these cases.

dvdisaster.

<b><a name="v40error">3.7 "Ecc file has been created with version 0.40.7."</a></b><p>
|
|
|
|
The <a href="http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=157550">CVS versions</a>
|
|
of dvdisaster mark their ecc files with a special bit. This causes dvdisaster
|
|
versions upto 0.65 to falsely display the above error message. Please use the
|
|
CVS versions only together with dvdisaster 0.66 or newer versions.
