freebsd stable - Nov 2003 - LG CD-ROM drives; also problem for FreeBSD?

Hi,

There is an announcement on the errata pages of Mandrake Linux,
about problems with LG CD-Roms and the Linux kernel:

The problem seems to be a design bug in these LG CD-Roms.

Would FreeBSD encounter similar problems?

Regards,
Rob.

>Would FreeBSD encounter similar problems?
I can't speak to whether FreeBSD would have a similar problem.  I know that 
I have two LG CD-RW and one LG CD-RW/DVD drive in machines here.  They all 
were able to install 4.8 and 5.1 without giving me any problem.  Of the 
stuff I have here, I don't remember the model number on the CD-RW's, but
the CD-RW/DVD is model number GCC-4480B.  They've been good solid drives, 
as good as anything else I've had on my machines, which include, Toshiba, 
Plextor, Sony, and Panasonic.
