Not to sound pessimistic, Carl, but I would take that as a sign of trouble.
I'm not particularly happy with the LiteOn CD-RW drive I got for our mail
server. It wouldn't read the one of my Debian discs (quality media). It was
number 13 so I just skipped it, but later, when the box was in the the server
cabinet, now lying on its side, I tried again and it read it perfectly.
It wouldn't read the disc when the drive is lying flat, but on its side it
does? Sounds fishy to me. The discs is known to be good. It reads
perfectly on the dodgiest of old drives I have lying around.
