Bug#294691: kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686-smp: Looks like it might be a hardware issue
Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686-smp
Version: 2.6.8-10
Followup-For: Bug #294691
I was still testing when I received the message from horns@debian.org.
After going through several iterations, I realized that if both DVD
burners were installed on the same IDE cable (which is how I got to
testing with Knoppix), the problem goes away. If only one is installed,
then I can sometimes overcome the issue by ejecting the tray a few
times to get a good read.
I've replaced the IDE cable to no avail. I have no other system at my
disposal to take down and install the DVD Burners to see if they are an
issue, but I think they're ok. Looks like the motherboard is acting up
on me.
Thank you for your time, but it looks like I might have some flaky
hardware. I'm sorry to have wasted your effort.
