Not long ago I bought a CD-ROM drive. In principal a nice buy, but I
do have a few problems.
I use ICD-PRO as a harddisk driver with write cache enabled. I never
had a problem with this (and it does speed things up), but when I used
my CD-ROM my whole harddisk got corrupted. (And I had not made a
backup for several years, because I never needed it.) With the write
cache disabled, everything seems fine, but I keep my fingers crossed
about this.
Another problem is that on one of my CD's there are very many files
and directories. The first are recognised, but after a certain point,
directories are empty and file's also.
When I start my system (or sometimes init later on my CD-ROM driver) I
get the following messages:

What can I do about these problems?

Greetings,

Cecil.
