Hrm, how well-tested has this been? I hadn't been using the new driver because of: 1.1 Tue Sep 8 20:57:47 1998 UTC by sos Add new atapi-cd driver that supports atapi CD-R/RW drives. This is only a stop-gab solution to get atapi burner support into 3.0. I don't know how much the code changed before you imported it into the tre, but I was able to panic my machine using the previous snapshot of the code you advertised on -hackers earlier in the year. I wonder whether this isn't opening the door for loads of bug reports after 3.0.1-release.
