Error messages3.1 "Warning: 2 sectors missing at the end of the disc".3.2 Program blocks right after invocation. 3.3 What does "CRC error, sector: n" mean?
3.1 "Warning: 2 sectors missing at the end of the disc" 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 not mean data loss in this case. 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. To avoid these problems, consider using the "DAO / Disc at once" (sometimes also called "SAO / Session at once") mode for writing single session media. 3.2 Program blocks right after invocationSometimes the program blocks right after the start and before any actions are carried out. It can not be terminated using Ctrl-C or "kill -9".
Investigations whether this is a bug in dvdisaster or a kernel problem
are still running ;-) A checksum from the error correction file does not match the respective sector in the medium image. Some possible causes are:
