When reading a bad CD, Linux 2.4.4-pre5 decided to turn off DMA when
trying to read a bad sector. It also decided to reset the drive. Is that
the expected behaviour? I'm certanly not an ATAPI expert, but it does
seem a bit drastic to me. The drive is in UDMA33 mode on a VIA vt82c686a,
with no (U)DMA problems detected (so far).
Isn't it possible to recogise a read error and treat it more gently?
