Subject: extra bytes written to SATA DVD drive on kernel 2.6.23 till 2.6.24.2

Hello,

I have two DVD drives, one connected to the SATA port (LG) the other to the 
IDE port (PHILIPS) of a via chipset.
They are driven by VIA SATA support (SATA_VIA) and VIA PATA support 
(PATA_VIA).

When I write an iso image to the drive on the SATA port /dev/sr0 it has some 
extra bytes on disk which make the disk unreadable.
Writing to the IDE drive /dev/sr1 works well.

A simple test with a DVD RAM and dd instead of growisofs

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/srX bs=1024k count=10

and a readback afterwards

dd if=/dev/srX of=imageX.bin bs=1024k count=10

gives me an all zero file from the IDE drive but a file
full of probably scsi commands for the SATA drive and looks like

I really need some hints to make the SATA drive usable, please.
