Hello FreeBSD Users,

I've got a PAS-16 card with a cdrom.  I've been using it since
I got 2.0 CD from WC.  It worked fine for 2.0, since I've updated
my code to 4/12 I get parity errors when the kernel probes the
device.  When I actually mount a CD I get a bunch of parity errors
and then a message about to many errors and the logging stops.

The disk is perfectly readable.  I've install a bunch of packages 
without a problem.  I'm just curious what the parity errors are
all about.  Anyone have a guess?

I'm using the following mount command:

mount_cd9660 /dev/cd0a /cdrom
