Hello folks. I am currently looking into purchasing an external USB CD/DVD+/-RW unit for my machine here at home. However, before doing so, I do have a few questions before plunking down the cash for this thing.
For starters, I don't know if this is an issue now, or ever really was an issue to begin with, but I vaguely recall hearing about problems during the installation of FreeBSD from a USB CD-ROM; something akin to the install halting at some point and thus a faulure to install at all. Unfortunately, after google'ing about, I am unable to find anything in regard to this. If anyone could confirm successful USB CD-ROM installs, it would be most appreciated. Yes, my machines does support booting from USB devices. Since the -STABLE EHCI, or USB2.0, support is not fully implemented yet, as I understand it and in so far as supporting full speed operation, will this pose any problems burning DVD +R or -R media? I've never had a DVD burner before, so I am somewhat new to this hardware. Any suggestions or comments would be most appreciated. Thank you, John. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
