Nadav is also correct here - the major source of problems is the Sound
Blaster IDE controller; using a more standard IDE controller should
stand a much better chance of working (hey Soren, speaking of which,
have you received our cheque yet for the purchase of a Soundblaster
CDROM combo and other assorted IDE drives?  If not, let me know and
I'll go yell at somebody :-)
