Hi Just bought a new cheap PC as a server. It's got an Optiarc DVD RW AD-7170A drive (according to the BIOS), but you can't install off it. If you boot off an install CD (including the 7.0-CURRENT for August) and try to start the live filesystem, the debug console shows this output: acd0: FAILURE – READ_BIG HARDWARE ERROR asc=0×08 ascq=0×03 g_vfs_done():acd0[READ]error = 5 I don't know what to do with this information or how best to report it, so I thought I'd post it here. Here are the full drive details from the BIOS: Device: ATAPI CD-ROM Vendor: Optiarc DVD RW AD-7170A LBA Mode: Supported PIO Mode: 4 Async DMA: MultiWord DMA-2 Ultra DMA: Ultra DMA-2 Ashleyhelp
