 ERROR DESCRIPTION:
 The Sony 55E, Sony 55D, and Mitsumi FX001DE cdrom's will not
 work in OS2 Warp. These are IDE cdrom's that are on the
 supported list for OS2 Warp. The Warp IBM1S506.ADD driver
 provides ATAPI support for IDE cdrom's, but these three cdrom's
 are not fully ATAPI compliant.
 .
 An inquiry command to an ATAPI compliant cdrom should return an
 even number of bytes, but in the case of the Mitsumi drive, an
 odd number of bytes is being returned. The Sony drives are
 initializing in improper mode.
 
 
 LOCAL FIX:
 None currently.
