Hello,
I wonder if it's possible to wait a few (about 5) seconds for the
drive to become ready if a CD drive indicated "not ready".
Currently I get about three messages very quickly and the operations
fails.
In HP-UX, a UNIX I know rather well, the OS will wait several seconds
for CD-ROMs, DAT tapes loading, disc drives spinning up, etc.
I can't see why it is not possibly in Linux, or is it just
inoperational, and nobody has noticed it.
In case it matters: I'm using an PCI AHA2940 (single ended, fast).
Regards,
Ulrich
