Hello,
I am interested in putting together a machine to burn lots of CD-ROM's for
software distribution. I want to put anywhere from 5 to 10, 8 speed
burners in the system that will write one ISO image at the same time using
multiple processes of cdrecord. My question is will the SCSI subsystem on
Linux handle this, and has anyone ever tried this? I understand that
pre 2.2 kernels had problems with limited buffers in the SCSI generic
driver. Will newer kernels have the same limitations? Any help or insight
would be greatly appreciated.

-Lars
