thanks for your interest:

mahoney# atacontrol mode 1
Master = WDMA2 
Slave  = PIO3

In case it might have helped, I've just rebuilt the system to
include in the kernel:

device          atapicam                # emulate ATAPI devices as SCSI ditto via CAM
                                        # needs CAM to be present (scbus & pass)

It is now possible to use `cdrecord'. Unfortunately the I'm still
having trouble burning CD-R's. Here are the details:

Hope this is of some help ;-) As a side note, although the errors
continue, at least `cdrecord' can recover to some extent and actually
`fixate' the CD. `Burncd' just fails and one is left with an unusable
disk.


Best regards,
