Hi Ivan, 1st: can you take a look at the output on console 2 (press Alt+2) and send it to me. 2nd: can you find out the lines where the kernel finds the cdrom during boot and send them, too. 3rd: could you please CC every message in a thread to the appropriate mailing list, too? 4th: please don't top posting. It's more comfortable for most people reading from top to bottom to gain the entire message and not reading your answer before the could read the questions / assumtions I sent.
