I've seen an ongoing dribble of doesn't-work and it-crashes reports and I simply have not made any record of them, because it's ide-scsi and I don't expect there's anything we can do about them :( Often these reports are from people who are writing CDROMs and the usual response is "use cdrecord dev=/dev/hdc". I think Alan and Jens might have some thoughts on the ide-scsi status? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
