Hi Fabio
I have a PACKARD BELL I-Media 1328/1 PC 2GB RAM & 500GB HD
and a CD/DVD
/dev/sr0:
ATAPI CD-ROM, with removable media
Model Number: _NEC DVD_RW ND-3550A
Serial Number:
Firmware Revision: 1.52
Standards:
Likely used CD-ROM ATAPI-1
Configuration:
DRQ response: 3ms.
Packet size: 12 bytes
cache/buffer size = unknown
Capabilities:
LBA, IORDY(cannot be disabled)
DMA: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 *udma2
Cycle time: min=120ns recommended=120ns
PIO: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4
Cycle time: no flow control=120ns IORDY flow control=120ns
It appears this should be capable 48x however testing the 10.4.3
alternate i386 installation CD with DVdisaster on this machine shows
that at 48X and at he outer rim of the disk (verbatim CD-R 700MB
53Xspeed (vitesse)) the scan graph on this disk looks like there is an
earthquake happening. However the CD can it says be read successfully.
(I WONDER why can't the installer read the CD THEN????)
At this point in time I do not know whether this is the root cause of
the problem but it sure looks like it. I wrote and installed this CD on
my HP laptop but that was a lower speed DVD/CD ROM device.
I do not know how to control the speed of the CDROM drive when booting
from the installation disk.
I have just watch a DVD movie on it and that plays fairly well.
DVdisaster showed no errors and had a pretty smooth and straight graph
from 3.7x to 8x 0-4.n GB.
Can you help?
I the mean time I will try an external (USB) CDROM drive (no I don't
think I can boot from that) therefore I will try another internal
drive. If I can find my CD cleaner I will use that too.
