Description

When a device never becomes ready in a device report, it asks for the next type of the disc on the same line as the "Waiting for drive to become ready" message. Most commonly occurs with GC discs because most drives can't read them, so after the drive isn't able to read the disc it asks for a Wii disc.

Exact command line used:

Aaru dev report /dev/sr0

Output of command execution with debug output enabled

Do you have a Nintendo GameCube game disc that you can insert in the drive? (Y/N): y
Please insert it in the drive and press any key when it is ready.
Waiting for drive to become readyDo you have a Nintendo Wii game disc that you can insert in the drive? (Y/N): y
Please insert it in the drive and press any key when it is ready.
