Is there a fix for this or do I > have a crappy computer? Your last message put the EIDE interface on the wrong side of the PCI bridge, which sounded like a BIOS problem to me. What manufacturer, make, model, and chipset does your motherboard have? What wd controller are you using, and are you sure you have the wd master/slave relationship correct? Is the wd probed before or after other disk controllers according to the boot messages? Have you attempted to boot the kernel in configuration mode (-c at the boot prompt) and disabled the ATAPI CDROM probe? The message got through but did not contain enough information for anyone to even give you an educated guess.
