    Thanks for replying!

    Forgot to mention, both CD drives were properly on windows 2K (dual boot),
    no idea why Linux should find a fault in one CDROM...

     
    Thanks!

    Any drive will "hang the system" if it has I/O errors. To check try
    mounting from the command line < mount /mnt/cdrom > and if there are I/O
    errors they will be output to the terminal.
     
    The CD R/W being seen as scsi indicates a 2.4.x kernel and is needed for
    burning.
