When I use cheap CDrs and write any faster than 8x (or sometimes any faster than 4x) the burn fails almost every time. If it's an ATAPI drive, try making it the master/single on its own cable. If it is on a separate controller, like the Asus A7V's Promise controller, try putting it on the main integrated controller. Hope this helps. >From: dive >To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org >Subject: acd1: CD-RW at ata1-master using PIO4 >Date: Fri, 6 Apr 2001 23:06:19 -0400 > >I've been going through the archives of this list and see messages dating >back to 4.1 about this drive not working, and the only suggested solution >was to upgrade to 4.2. well, I'm running 4.3-RC now, and I've followed all >the instructions for burncd and am getting the same errors (both the kernel >messages printed on console and the error from burncd) as another user who >posted here in december of last year. > >does anyone have nay idea how to get this working? > >To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org >with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
