Description of problem:
When attempting to copy large files (greater than 50MBs) from either the IDE DVD
(Samsung as /dev/hdb) or the MSI CD-RW (/dev/scd0) I get a "Error "I/O error"
while copying/mnt/cdrom/<file> Would you like to continue?  Well it never
continues. I've tried in the console as wellas XWindows (Gnome).  Can copy
smaller files without problems.  I have added the "dma on" option in the
etc/module to improve DVD playback, but this happened before those changes.  
System is a P4-2.4Ghz, Via 266E chipset, 256MB Ram.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Boot 
2.attempt to copy file from /mnt/cdrom(1) that is larger than 50MB
3.
    

Actual Results:  Error as described

Expected Results:  A copied file
