About a week ago I posted a message to questions but received no response. My problem is solved though, and I thought someone might want to know that the Philips CDD2000 CD-Recorder works under FreeBSD 2.2-961014-SNAP with very minor modifications. Maybe someone could make these changes to the tree and add the CD-R to the list of working CD-R's. The only modifications required were to scsiconf.c and worm.c - adding the vendor ID ("IMS") and model number ("CDD2000/00") in such a way that it duplicates the HP 4020i entries. Apparently some of the older CDD2000 drives had a different ID, so this may not work for all. The quirks are the same as those of the HP drive. Philips recently advertised the internal models for US $499 (after a rebate); this is at least $100 cheaper than the HP drives I could find around here. I just burnt a CD and was able to read it from FreeBSD and DOS. Carlos -- Carlos A.
