solaris cdrecord BH08LS20 drive BD-R problems

Trying to burn ISO9660 image to blu-ray disc, and not having much luck.
Any help on how to do this on solaris 10 using cdrecord would be
appreciated.
I noticed some discussion about formatting BD-R discs.
Do I have to format new discs before using cdrecord? If so, how?

My system is loaded with one of the newer versions of solaris 10
$ uname -a
SunOS my_machine 5.10 Generic_139555-08 sun4u sparc sun4u

Built cdrecord from source code (berlios.de) version 2.01.01a61
The drive is LG model BH08LS20 connected via SATA to USB2.0 converter
The discs are Memorex single layer BD-R speed 1x - 4x

If I use "-atip" or "-v -minfo" flags, cdrecord gets I/O errors
Below are the results of -minfo (without -v) and trying to write to disc

# cdrecord dev=3,0,0 -minfo
