How would you feel about becoming the owner of a Plextor PX-755SA DVD-RW drive, free of charge? I have one which I've used, and it works on Windows and FreeBSD without any issue (tested on both nForce 4 Ultra and nForce 650i chipsets). You could keep the drive, as my way of saying "thanks for your troubleshooting help" (I may not be able to help you directly with ATAPI problems, but I can almost always help dedicated people out when it comes to hardware...) This would at least help in narrowing down whether your DVD-RW drive tickles a bug in FreeBSD, is incompatible with your chipset, or is by itself somehow faulty. Let me know, and/or provide an address (privately) and I will ship it off to you within a week. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
