I have a DVD RW drive that is well listed in the bios, and if no CD is in, it is also present in the "My Computer" of my Fedora 16.
But when I put a disc on it, the icon disapear from "My Computer", and I can not do anything with this ! (Like erasing a RW disc).
I'd like to boot a Fedora 17 Live CD image. I burned it on an other computer but when I try to run it in bios, nothing is done and I'm redirected to Grub of my HD.
The command cdrecord -scanbus
shows this :
wodim: Warning: controller returns wrong size for CD capabilities page.
wodim: Cannot get CD capabilities data.
6,1,0 601) 'HD-DT%ST' 'DVD%RAM G@22NP20' '1&04' Removable CD-ROM
And when I try to mount manually the disc, I got this error :
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/sr0: can't read superblock
Here's a paste of dmesg | grep sr0
:

The lines from Sense Key ..
(line 6) to DRIVER_SENSE
(line 11) are repeating a lot.
I then changed my DVD player with an other spare one I had, and the disc didn't boot neither. I then changed the IDE cable, but still no success.
I tried a driver CD from Logitech to see if it was working, here's the dmesg log :
[91262.960539] sr0: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: Xdread, Read track info 52 01 00 00 00 01 00 00 20 00
[91262.960561] sr: Sense Key : Hardware Error [current]
[91262.960570] sr: Add. Sense: No additional sense information
I then tried with an old game CD (for windows), here's the result :
[91372.015116] sr0: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: Xdread, Read track info 52 01 00 00 00 01 00 00 20 00
[91372.015138] sr: Sense Key : Hardware Error [current]
[91372.015147] sr: Add. Sense: No additional sense information
(same error)
If I try to mount it (linux : mount /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom/), here's what dmesg says :
[94083.825753] sr 6:0:1:0: [sr0] CDB: Read(10): 28 00 00 00 00 10 00 00 01 00

My driver is a LG GH22NP20BB.
Update 1 :
I tried again with an other DVD driver, here's the dmesg :
[ 343.828326] sr0: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: Xdread, Read track info 52 01 00 00 00 01 00 00 20 00
[ 343.828349] sr: Sense Key : Hardware Error [current]
[ 343.828357] sr: Add. Sense: No additional sense information
Oh well, same error! So it's related to the mother board (that's all I can guess)
Could it be a wrong configured bios? (like sata/ide/raid something?)
Update 2:
I resetted my bios, and it didn't changed anything, so I think the problem is on the motherboard. I'll see with my manufacturer.
What can I do to make it work? Thanks for your help.
dmesg
in a shell and show the lines wheresr0
is detected and classified?
