Re: [gentoo-user] Kernel 2.6.16-gentoo-r7 freezes sometimes

[JC Denton]

Ok, I did the configuration of the kernel. And also cdrecord does complain, so everything seems ok. BUT it is not. I can surely say when the system will crash because in this cases it takes aweful long untill I can choose a operating system. And then it hangs when using kernel 2.6.16. I am getting the same error with 2.6.14 but it boots after some time. Is there a problem in the boot conditions? Is there some configuration file that is used while boot time that contains bad things?

Do not know what to do anymore.

Well assuming you are just using ide-scsi so you can access your
CD/DVD burner, it should be as simple as turing off
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI and turning on CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD.

Then you will use /dev/hdX (or just /dev/cdrom or /dev/cdrw) instead
of /dev/sr0 as the device for whatever burn software you are using.
cdrecord will complain loudly about using a device node, but then
again, if cdrecord doesn't complain loudly about something, you
probably made a mistake!
