When I try to make an exact copy of a cd using: dd if=/dev/acd0c of=cd.img and dd if=/dev/acd1c of=cd.img It gives the error: 'dd: /dev/acd0c: Bad Address' and it gives the error: 'dd: /dev/acd1c: Bad Address' It's no hardware failure! The same thing happens on another system of mine, also running FreeBSD 4.1.. (Also a K6!?) When I run: 'wormcontrol prepdisk double' or 'wormcontrol prepdisk single' having done 'ln -s /dev/acd0c /dev/rworm0' It gives the error: 'wormcontrol: ioctl(WORMIOCPREPDISK): Inappropriate ioctl for device' On FreeBSD 3.3 it used to work, just as with the dd command.. Does anybody know what this is, and how I can solve it? (maybe use other devices, add options to the kernel, etc, etc) BTW, I am not on this list, but I do keep track of lists.openresources.com.. Any help will be appreciated! Best regards, Ewout Vonk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
