    Downloading and compiling 2.4.19 was a success. cdrecord now works.

    However I do notice that the kernel has trouble keeping up to a 16x scsi
    drive about 100mb into any burn. Even in console-only mode, I can only do
    12x.

    I have an Ultra 2 w/ two 300 Mhz processors. This should be able to keep up
    to a 16x burner? Or should I suspect something wrong? SCSI bus is
    terminated after the external CD burner.
