--=-Xrr6Wbq/eYSfFND9vMzP Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hey all, I'm running the Gentoo livecd in a box I'm building to copy data from one HD to another. However, after a short while running, commands "disappear" and I get driveerror messages. This is a brand new, 3 day old DVD-ROM drive that's been doing this since its very first boot. The mobo's never given me any IO trouble before so I'm doubting that's it. I'm pretty sure the DVD-ROM drive's bad, I even burned a new LiveCD on a different burner with a disc from a different spindle than the first LiveCD and same problem. Below is all the remotely relevant `dmesg` info. I'd appreciate a second opinion from the group please. TIA, Bryce ...
