Like just about any CDROM drive on the market today :)

I've never had a single problem with my Toshiba 3601,
and I think the error is caused by some application
sending an invalid request.

What program did access the CDROM drive at that time ?

Well, I did the "NEW_SCSICONF" changes back in 
September 1994, in part to move some of the code
that dealt with buggy devices out of the NCR driver.

No driver (writer) took notice, even after you made 
the new code the default (in December 1995).

Justin Gibbs' new generic SCSI code will take care
of tagged commands, and I suggest to just wait for
him to complete his interfaces, before any driver
is modified ...
