Why using DMA causes logical unit communication time-out I have no idea. It is possible, even probably that there is an error in the DMA support in the firmware of the drive. Um, you did build the kernel with support for DMA in the PIIX$ chipset and use DMA if available I assume? I'm not sure what would happen if you turned on DMA between the controller and the drive and not between the chipset and RAM. Using DMA will result in a large reduction in CPU usage, and I believe that's true only when the whole path is DMA. I haven't deliberately tried it, though. I do run all my ATAPI systems with DMA if the drive supports that feature.

In addition, you may need to disable DMA for this channel on the motherboard.

Re: cdrecord + mache dvd patch question
I had suggestions for bad cable and don't use the Promise PDC20267, so I replaced the IDE cable and moved the device to be (the only device) on the second onboard bus. I then used hdparm -d1 and we're back to (same command line and machine as before): cdrecord-prodvd-1.11a13-i586-pc-linux-gnu: Input/output error. write_g1: scsi sendcmd: no error CDB: 2A 00 00 04 9E 7B 00 00 1F 00 status: 0x2 (CHECK CONDITION) Sense Bytes: 70 00 04 00 00 00 00 0E 00 00 00 00 08 01 00 00 Sense Key: 0x4 Hardware Error, Segment 0 Sense Code: 0x08 Qual 0x01 (logical unit communication time-out) Fru 0x0 Sense flags: Blk 0 (not valid) cmd finished after 2.007s timeout 100s hdparm -c1 had more useful result than failure-before-the-fact now, but also eventually offers the same failure.

Actually, I lied.
