There's no error in dmesg output. But when I boot with a disk in the
drive, I get the following errors in the boot screen:
* Loading hardware devices
[23.927373] end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 1431744
[23.927373] Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 178968
and then several more with just a different number in the square
brackets. However, that does not seem to affect the operation of the
drive.
