This is from the universal livecd.

SQUASHFS is giving me a read error and a DriveSeek error. It works fine until the CDROM is idle and has to spin itself back up to access the CD. Then it gives me the error. Any suggestions? I tried ide=nodma, docache, noapic.

Is the correct format for these "gentoo ide=nodma" or "gentoo -ide=nodma"?


Am I on the correct track? Any suggestions would be helpful.

it would be

gentoo ide=nodma

You're most likely using an old cd drive. I get that with some of my really old ones.

I got this same error just now with the 2004.2 livecd. I'm copying an entire partition in VC1 but tried to do 'df' in VC2 simultaneously and it segfaulted.

Code:
hdc: media error (bad sector): status = 0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: media error (bad sector): status = 0x30
loop0: read i/o error, sector 32906
loop0: read i/o error, sector 32908
loop0: read i/o error, sector 32910
SQUASHFS error: zlib_fs returned unexpected result 0xfffffffd
SQUASHFS error: Unable to read page, block 10115d6, size 1034
Segmentation Fault


ls segfaullts too. I saw this just previously where running ls logged me straight out. Now I'm getting:

Code:
INIT: Id "c2" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes


Eventually the login prompt came back.

My CD drive is an ASUS CDRW and it's approximately 6 months old. It has never given me problems with anything else. I might have a failing CDR however.
