Twice now I've had a cd-rw go bad (after about 85 rewrites), and both
times the system hangs, and the caps- and scroll-lock lights flash on
the keyboard.  This last time I was at the console, and saw the kernel
messages.  It was having a problem with the IRQs related to the
cdwriter, and said that it was killing the interrupt handler because
it wasn't syncing (or something like that :).

Is there a way to capture the kernel error messages when this kind of
thing happens?  It didn't leave any messages in the syslog.

My kernel version is 2.4.13-ac8, and the cd burner is a Hewlett
Packard 9150i IDE.  Have any of you had problems like this?

Thanks,
Ben
