First, just check a few things:

1. Is the CD-RW media okay, not damaged?

2. Does the writer support this media?

3. Do you use the proper speed to record the media? Most CD-RWs can't
   be recorded as fast as CD-Rs can.



 What other (built in with the release) program can be used to burn 700 MB
 rw/cd's?

Since introduction of atapicam (needs to be in your kernel) I
switched to the cdrecord utility, and sometimes I use cdrdao,
both availabe from ports.

 I got the same exact errors trying to install 7.0-RELEASE on two
 different Dell boxes. One was 4 years old, the other was brand new (3
 months ago).

 Never was able to fix the problem. For the older one, I plugged in an
 external DVD drive and installed via that. For the other one, I
 installed via a mini-install disk, and then did a minimal network
 install.

 For the record, they both had SATA drives and the disks worked (and
 still work) fine after the OS was installed. It was just copying the
 base system off the CD that was causing errors.

   Aloha,

 I am getting the same errors as you guys with an intermittient 
BIG_read one occasionally. I've tried to install FreeeBSD CURRENT 8 and 
7 release.


 This is on a no name box with a bio board and 1100 cpu. I've had 
this on other boxes too and load IDE drives on a box that works with 
them and then put them in the box with errors and they work just fine.


 Every thing gets recognized normally at  install time, but the size 
of the IDE drive a Fujutsu 20 gig. shows twice what it should be every time.


 Dont know if this has anything to do with it, except if you change 
the size in installer it wont load anything.


 Maybe one of the top level gurus on the list can help.



Aloha,

The suggestion to put the folloeing worked to clear my DMA error.

In: /boot/loader
Put: hw.ata.ata_dma=0 #disable IDE DMA

This allowed an uninterrupted boot.

Burncd 700MB rw/cd

2008-09-06 Thread FBSD1
Been using burncd since Freebsd 4.0 with 650MB rw/cd's just fine. My local
computer store had a sale on 700MB rw/cd's and I picked up a few. Burncd
gives msg (Failure - read_big illegal request) on these 700MB rw/cd's. The
Freebsd 7.0 man burncd has no info on large sized rw/cd's?

Does burncd need a programming update to handle these newer larger sized
rw/cd's?

What other (built in with the release) program can be used to burn 700 MB
rw/cd's?
