Interesting. I have only one other report of this problem that resembles yours. They also have a 3ware raid controller. > installation kernel cannot use the DVD drive.

The drive is recognized These are the correct drivers. > A vanilla 2.6.23.1 kernel behaves even less friendly, the dd > on /dev/sr0 causes a hard reset. A dmesg and further info would be useful here. Also knowing how much memory your system has and whether it passes memtest86. > So there are clearly some problems with libata in this system. CK804 is known to work reliably. That means we are looking for something thats "different" about your system - perhaps the devices, the amount of memory etc. Alan - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
