Ok.  I have a slight problem, I swapped by CD Writer (HP 8100)
with a CD-Reader (Mitsumi) and rebooted.  I get a new
error during the boot process... immediatly following:

|   acd0: CD-RW <...>
|   Mouning from root iso9660:cd0a
|   no such device 'cd'
|   setrootbyname failed
|   iso_mountroot: can't find rootvp
|   Root mount failed: 6
|   Mounting root from iso9660:acd0

acd0: READ_BIG - MEDIUM ERROR asc=02 ascq=0 error=00
Root mount failed: 5
no such device 'wcd'
set rootbyname failed
cd9960: Rockridge Extension
acd0: READ_BIG - command timeout - resetting
bus error
...
 bunch more READ_BIG MEDIUM ERRORs and timeouts
 then a "vm fault pager read error", then a 
 "bus error core dumped"... then it ends saying
 that it can't mount fstab so startup is aborted.

...

Does this have anything to do with the following error?

| During burning the iso image, I get a message to my 
| console,  PREVENT_ALLOW - ILLEGAL REQUEST asc=64 ascq=0 error=04
| this occurs as burncd is "fixing".  

I replaced the reader with the writer and all is well, so,
I see a few potentials for this problem:

  (a) bad media
  (b) bad writer
  (c) bad reader
  (d) imperfect software
  (e) some combination

It's about time I replaced by CD-Writer and got a new CD-Reader,
any brands that you recommend?  I can get new media while I'm at it.

By the way, another group of warnings appear in both boot cases...

  Warning: Bytes per inode restrict cylinders per group to 9
  Warning: Inode blocks/cylinder group (285) >= data blocks (256)
           in the last cylinder group, this implies that 4096 
           cylinders cannot be allocated
  496 blocks
  Warning: Block size restricts cylinders per group to 26
  496 blocks
  mounting non-volitle disk

Is this something to be worried about?

Thank you all so much.

Best,

Clark
