Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Has anyone ever seen this... I have an NEC 6X SCSI CDROM. About a week ago I was trying to install some FreeBSD src and got a wierd error in the install script. I looked at the line and it read: cat s${i}.>? | tar --unlink -xpzf - -C /usr/src I thought, what the hell is the > before the ?? I then tried to tar tvzf a package and got a CRC error. The CDROM is fucked, but sparsely. Most of the data on a CD is readable. The disk above was a 2.2.6-RELEASE, I just put in a 2.2.5-RELEASE and the errant data is exactly the same. I tried cleaning the drive. No difference. Has anyone seen this before? I have read these CDs fine before. Nothing else has changed. It is attached to a BusLogic PCI adapter. I'm not on the list, so... Any insight is much appreciated. Thanks, Dan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
