As previously reported, I had extensive SCSI-IDE errors while running cdparanoia ripping CDS. Furthermore, CDparanioa would often crash and depending upon the kernel, the process could not be killed. Subsequent usage of the CDROM drive found it to be flaky and finally dead for other processes ie reading regular CDROMs. I replaced the CDROM Drive (Creative 24X) a new CDROM drive (Creative "Quad Speed"...you know how old that is !) and everything works fine. I can read data from the drive without problem as well as rip CDs without any errors. Previously the cdparanoia output was outputting to track04.cdda.wav (== PROGRESS == [-+++---++++++++++++++++++---| 070472 00 ] == :^D * ==) with numerous timeout and error messages, whereas now it is: outputting to track04.cdda.wav (== PROGRESS == [---------------------| 070472 00 ] == :^D * ==) I'm a happy camper. On another note, I just had a Yamaha 4.2.6 CDRwriter quit while installing RH8.0 from CDs onto a server computer. Is there something about Redhat/Linux that is hard on CDROM drives ? That drive ran on this computer as well, although never ripping CDs if I remember correctly. Suddenly it looks as though I have 2 dead CDROM drives.
