Again, this wrote a disc which CDROMFS can read fine. This time the drive light flashed on and off during writing, and the disc ejected at the end of the writing process. Is it the case that the light indicates the type of disc or speed of write? e.g. writing to a +RW gives a light 'on' steadily, but writing to a +R makes the light flash on and off?
