One one machine I have a problem...
Reading IDE cdroms, (doing cp's to my hard disk) I sometimes get "IO error".
What I'm doing is
cp -v -R --update <cdrom> <destination>
until its done (the IO error is inconsistent).
I'm running 2.0...( I just tried to identical operation on another machine and had no problem).
I had the problem about 5 times in a row when I transfered from IDE CDROM to scsi HD.
When I transfered from IDE CDROM to IDE DISK, it worked (timing?)
These were Microsoft mastered disks...don't recall this with other disks...
It worked on another machine...
