I'm trying to get my Texel 3024 CD-ROM to work with 386BSD with the
new scsi drivers.
I can mount CD-ROMs and access the directories and some of the files
(others fail with errno=EINVAL.) After a while the machine hangs or
crashes.
I don't think the bug is in the filesystem code, as the same behavior
(crashes and hangs) can be be obtained by:
dd if=/dev/cd0a of=/dev/null
I've read the cd.c source, and see that there is code that is supposed
to work with !512 byte sector devices, but maybe there is something
else missing.
