I did the above command (note that it doesn't involve finding files on the hard drives at all), and basically the HD light and the cdrom activity light were flashing together. I have a BTC 24X ATAPI cdrom drive. I'd like to check to see if anyone on this list has one of these, and if so, have you had any problems? For example, if I do dd if=/dev/racd0c of=cd.img the file cd.img is zero-length, dd hangs (ignores ^C totally), and I get messages like acd0: READ_BIG command timeout - resetting ata1: resetting devices .. done acd0: READ_BIG command timeout - resetting ata1: resetting devices .. done acd0: READ_BIG command timeout - resetting ata1: resetting devices .. done acd0: READ_BIG command timeout - resetting ata1: resetting devices .. done acd0: READ_BIG command timeout - resetting ata1: resetting devices .. done acd0: READ_BIG command timeout - resetting ata1: resetting devices .. done Even if I do killall -9 dd, dd refuses to die. I haven't yet tried this with the old wd driver (I probably should), but I will if I'm requested. Anyone else have a BTC 24X or similar ATAPI drive? Thanks.
