Yes, it could be a combination of the media and the
drive. I have had problems like that in the past, so I stopped using
memorex media.
Eric,
It IS a coaster although when I insert the disc in this
or another machine the pop-up says I have inserted a Blank DVD, properties on it
show it to have no content and no free space. Obviously some
initialization was accomplished before the error.
BTW, googling "WRITE @
LBA=0h failed with SK=0h ASC=00h ACQ=02h" yields lots of results and from
different distros, hardware, and media manufacturers though a lot of the same
software (brasero, cdrecord, growisofs) since they are pretty
ubiquitess.
Matt,
They are issues, problems, errors, and WTFs
because English is defined and used imprecisely. Therefore, we have words
with many definitions and synonyms both real and defacto.
Thanks for your
suggestions. I will try some of them but I got the disc burned by taking
the .iso to another machine with the same distro (ubuntu 9.04) and using the
same method (right click on the .iso file and choosing "disc burner". I
typically do not descend to command line where the gui methods work much more
easily.
So the immediate issue is solved but I'd still like to know why
this happens occasionally on my HP dv6250 laptop. Maybe it is the media
issue or the thin model optical drive.
Lisa,
Thanks for the
references. The ubuntu forums one was not much help except for naming some
potential causes I already knew. The fedora reference has more detail as
you say but will have to look into that one when i have more time as with Matt's
troubleshooting suggestions.
