Mandrake 9.2 and LG-based CD-ROM drives

There are issues with Mandrake Linux 9.2 and LG-based CD-ROM drives

From the Mandrake Linux 9.2 errata page:

Error scenario: Installing 9.2 and being told unable to install the base system and subsequent reboot reveals that CD-ROM drive is physically dead.

Why: According to LG Electronics, their ODD (Optical Disc Drive) products do not support Linux nor do they test with Linux. Unfortunately, many Dell computers (possibly others) come with these CD-ROM drives.

Solution: Currently there is no solution or work-around for this issue; it is still under investigation. Damage occurs even when doing a network install. At this point, please do not install Mandrake Linux 9.2 on any computer containing a LG-based CD-ROM drive or it will damage your CD-ROM drive! We are actively looking for a solution to this problem.

Da, postoji problem sa nekim LG CD rom uredjajima (ne i rezacima). U pitanju je samo LG jer je LG izjavio da njegovi uredjaji ne podrzavaju Linux, dok sa ostalim proizvodjacima nema problema.
Ukoliko imate jedan od ovih modela nemojte da instalraite MDK 9.2 za sada:

# COMPAQ CRD-8322B(CP1)
# CRD-8400B (machine: Dell Optiplex gx1)
# CRD-8400B (machine: IBM PC 300 PL)
# CDR-8400B(mi)CRD-8400CCOMPAQ
# CRD-8402BLG CRD-8480C (machine: Old Dell XPS T650r)
# GCR-8481B (machine: Dell Optiplex gx270; rom: 1.06; date: jun 2003)
# CRD-8482B (machine: Dell Optiplex GX1)
# GOLDSTAR CDR-8482B (machine: HP Vectra VL400; firmware: 1.01)
# CRD-8482B (Dell Precision 220, rom: 1.05)
# LG ???? (machine: HP Vectras VL4xx)
# GCC 4480B DVD/CD-R/RW/CDROM (firmware 1.00 – upgrading firmware to 1.01 workarounds problem)
# Compaq ‎DRN8040B DVD-CDROM (Compaq M700 laptop no upgrade found, still works on DVD )

Napominjem da svi rezaci rade, kao na primer:

# LG GMA-4020B DVD-RW
# LG GCC-4120B CDRW/DVD
# LG CD-RW CED-8080B DVD/CD-R/RW/CDROM
# LG CD-RW CED-8120B (motherboard: ASUS K7M)
# HL-DT-ST GCC-4480B (machine: Shuttle SB 62 G2 – i865/ICH5; firmware 1.01 – WARNING, firmware 1.00 is reported to have the fry problem!)
# HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4480B (motherboard: ASUS A7N8X-Deluxe)
# HL-DT-STDVD-ROM GDR8161B (motherboard: Soyo)
# HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8240BHL-DT-ST GCE-8481B CD-CDRW (chipset: SIS 651/962)
# HL-DT-ST CD-ROM GCR-8520BHL-DT-ST GCE-8520B (motherboard: ASUS P4P800)

Auh! Sada vec lakse disem posto imam HL-DT-ST GCE-8520B. Jos samo da stigne power pack i bice sve super.

Ja imam citac GCR-8520B koji dakle radi,a mislim da su svi LG citaci koji se valjaju kod nas u poslednjih godinu dana upravo taj model,52 brzinac

Iako do sada niko nije imao problema sa svojim LG uredjajem, mi smo se potrudili da obezbedimo novi kernel koji ce otkloniti svaku sumnju. U pitanju je kernel 2.4.22-21 u kojem je promenjena sporna instrukcija
