ive implemented read retries =0 yesterday, no success, drive spun down.

i like to try mmc mode-select RC=1 to turn off hw error correction and 
implement a sw scratches error correction in k3b.
is there oss code for sw sector correction anywhere?

got the mmc-2/-3 specs, bunch of paper...

a quick reference or the correct cmd sequence for RC mode-select would 
be helpful here.
