Ah, let's do the thing by foot then since it is easier: Open drivers/ide/ide-cd.c and locate the following lines (as you've done already in the screenshot): 756 } else { 757 if (uptodate <= 0 && rq->errors == 0) 758 rq->errors = -EIO; 759 } 760 761 if (uptodate == 0) 762 ide_cd_error_cmd(drive, cmd); 763 764 /* make sure it's fully ended */ and change the 761th line from 761 if (uptodate == 0) to 761 if (uptodate == 0 && rq->bio) and then recompile and install your kernel as you normally do. Then boot test it to see whether it works. That's it :).
