Hi,

I'm geting some errors with IDE cdroms. I'm using 3.0-Stable.

Ever I do "dd if=/dev/wcd0c of=cdrom.0" to make identicals cdroms. After
3.0-Stable, "dd" never finsh off!!. I try to kill this job but kill
command don't work!!. Finally I make reboot. When my system restart my "/"
was not properly dismounted!!

I'm using "dd if=/dev/wcd0c of=cdrom.0" since 2.1.X.

Paulo.
