[gentoo-user] Kernel 2.6.16-gentoo-r7 freezes sometimes

Hi!
 
 I have a big problem. I am using 2.6.16-gentoo-r7 and the system stops booting from time to time. This happens, when I get the sequence of errors like:
  ide-scsi: (IO,CoD) != (0,1) while issuing a packet command
 hdc: ATAPI reset complete
 
 Then it follows a "---------------[cut here ]--------------------"
 And I get :
 
 kernel BUG at include/linux/timer.h:83!
 invalid opcode: 0000 [#1]
 PREEMPT
 
 Sometimes the systems boot swithout complaining. 
 Please, I need  help!
 
 Thanks!

Why are you still using ide-scsi??

It seems so. Mainly because I do not know how to change. If you could give me a hint ?

Well assuming you are just using ide-scsi so you can access your
CD/DVD burner, it should be as simple as turing off
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI and turning on CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD.

Then you will use /dev/hdX (or just /dev/cdrom or /dev/cdrw) instead
of /dev/sr0 as the device for whatever burn software you are using.
cdrecord will complain loudly about using a device node, but then
again, if cdrecord doesn't complain loudly about something, you
probably made a mistake!

Ok, I did the configuration of the kernel. And also cdrecord does complain, so everything seems ok. BUT it is not. I can surely say when the system will crash because in this cases it takes aweful long untill I can choose a operating system. And then it hangs when using kernel 2.6.16. I am getting the same error with 2.6.14 but it boots after some time. Is there a problem in the boot conditions? Is there some configuration file that is used while boot time that contains bad things? 
 
 Do not know what to do anymore.

No.  If it completes booting, is it stable?  Do merges work ok?
Because my best guess at this point is a hardware problem:
overheating, bad memory, bad processor, bad motherboard, or a bad
power supply.

Additionally, when using cdrecord, you will use:

cdrecord dev=ATAPI:<X,Y,Z>

It is also possible to use a numbered ID when 
using IDE/ATAPI: cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 Run 
cdrecord dev=ATAPI -scanbus to find the valid IDs.

See http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/cdrecording/ and the man page.

Normally this isn't even necessary.  Using -dev /dev/cdrw should work.
