Hi. I just got this hifty Yamaha CRW-4260 cdrom burner.
When using CD-RW media, I notice that many times I
get "Error Fixating disc..." + much SCSI pukeration.

What is involved in "Fixating" the disc, and why should
it cause so many SCSI errors?

ps: The CD-RW reads fine in spite of the errors both in
the Yamaha CRW-4260 and in my Panasonic x32 ide drive.

(hey - I thought ide drives didn't like CD-RW media!!!)
