Jeppers, that fixed it. Strange, I was pretty sure I already changed it when you suggested it. Anyway, it works now: minimac2:basictools zedv$ ./himdformat_scg 3,0,0 SCSI command sent successfully. minimac2:basictools zedv$ We can finally start putting the pieces together and implement a working formatting (and other useful SCSI commands) function on QHiMDTransfer on _all_ supported platforms. Great work, guys! I will send updated patches for cdrtools and build instructions for MacOS X to the list soon. Adrian
