I keep getting similar messages with my Sony MOD:

  (ncr0:4:0): "SONY SMO-C501-00E 3.02" type 0 removable SCSI 1
  sd2(ncr0:4:0): Direct-Access
  sd2(ncr0:4:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc:24,0 Invalid field in CDB
  sd2 could not mode sense (4). Using ficticious geometry

  sd2(ncr0:4:0): NOT READY asc:a,0 Error log overflow
  sd2: could not get size
  0MB (0 512 byte sectors)

Since it cannot get the number of blocks (block size is wrong, too. should
be 1024 bytes), I cannot use the drive at all. (or does someone know
better?). Anything I could do to use the drive?


Hoping,
Mike Witte.
