Hi, When I try to use the external cdrom on my Indy, the machine produces scsi errors, like command timeout and I have to reboot with sysrq. I tried two harddisks but the same.Under Irix it is working with the same scsi id-s. Is there a bug around cdrom,sr_mod or something to know about the external cdroms under 2.4.17 ? It is working with external harddisk. I use 2.4.17, woody. I tried to compile 2.4.18 but the newport console gets blue and the output stops, otherwise ok. I tried to compile linux-2.4.19 from cvs, but it does'nt boot. Please tell me what's this cdrom error and which kernel is known to be completely working ? thank you -- - - A t t i l a :: trial@ugyvitelszolgaltato.hu :: S z a b o - -
