I have seen a few threads with regards to having a problem with ATAPI cdroms, on 4.6.rcx, and I also have the same problems.. I have several different hardware configurations that I have tested this with, as well as versions.. 4.5 was the last version that worked across the board.. 4.6 RC2 and RC3 both have the exact same problem reading cdroms, both commercial and inhouse burned.. Newer drives appear to work. I have several ACER and Toshiba 40X and 52X that refuse to read (beyond a directory listing). Error: READ_BIG command timeout - reseting It appears this problem began after ATA was mfc.. Not sure why there is not more noise with regards to this, however I do agree it to be a "Major Problem". --john To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
