i have one of these old HP7200i cd-rw (IDE) devices that need dma turned-off in order for a successful burn/write session:
ie: #hdparm -d0 /dev/hdc Otherwise, I get buffer-underruns and or the kernel locks-up horribely. I believe i also had some issues with devfs & this ide cd-rw. forget tho. thought i'd post this to ensure that it's atleast known about. Again, yes, i need to turn-off dma for this cd-rw only. (my other hdd's have dma turned on, etc). I think in the specs, it even says nothing about dma, etc. - Roger
