Netra 1400 and burned media

I seem to have problems using burned CDs and DVD-R in the DVD-ROM's that come with Netra 1400.Anyone know if those drives can read recordable media?I couldn't find anything on sun.comThanks

as long as you finalize the session, it should work just fine... have you tried (or do you have) Sun install cds to try? maybe the dvd is toast?haroldkarl

Nero burning software didn't ask me to finalize the session or anything.

I think when you burn an iso it automatically does that. (not sure).

Tried a CD on a machine, it worked. Tried the same CD on another machine and it didn't work. Tried a DVD on the machine that worked for CD and it did not work.

Strange.

Do you have at least Solaris 8 installed and running on the system(s) ?

If so, then as any user, do ...

$ iostat -En

Find the entry for the optical drive and let us know the brand name

and whatever it might list for "Revision" (which happens to be its firmware version).

Early Netra 140x systems shipped with only a Toshiba CD drive

and later ones shipped with a Toshiba DVD-ROM drive that had issues

reading DVD media.

The solution was up update the DVD drive firmware, [url=http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-111649-04-1&s earchclause=m1401]using patch 111649[/url].

If you have a non-Sun drive in there, I would not be able to give advice.
