CD burner hangs system with new motherboard


I recently had to change motherboards on an FC4 existing system. After changing to the ECS 755-A2 MB, my CD burner would cause my system to hang whenever I tried to read or write a CD. The burner worked fine on the "same" system with the previous motherboard.

I tried performing a clean install of FC5, but I have the same results; system hangs on read or write for that drive. I performed the access as root in every case.

Here is the output from "cdrecord -scanbus", the drive in question is listed first:

Cdrecord-Clone 2.01.01a03-dvd (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2005 Jörg Schilling
NOTE: This version contains the OSS DVD extensions for cdrtools and thus may
have bugs related to DVD issues that are not present in the original
cdrtools. Please send bug reports or support requests to

not be bothered with problems in this version.

Downgrade to the FC4 versions of the cdrtools (cdrecord and mkisofs);

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla....cgi?id=179862

Also check your BIOS settings on ECS motherboard, changing the settings may help.
