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?

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.
