Thanks Alan for the explanation again. I recall an earlier mention of
this topic. (another list or this list)
It seems that of all the CD drives that I ran a mediacheck on, all had
this particular media failure. (A laptop, industrial computer and two
desktops). The puzzling factor was disc 1 passing mediacheck and the
others failing.
The discs were all burned using nautilus-cd-burner. I tried k3b but it
bombed midway through two different disk creation attempts. (buffer, use
slower speed)
Loading ide-scsi seems more catchall since there are so many the
different ways that CDs could be burned.
