Disabling ACPI, compiling for UP/without apic makes no difference to this behaviour. I have reconfigured the layout of my IDE devices, switched cables also with no effect. The only change that I have been able to do is swap drives with another machine. Everything works fine now. So obviously the problem lies within the cdrom drive itself. Booting the other machine, which runs an older -current yielded the familiar missing interrupt message, the system continued booting. The drive works just fine after boot. However, I predict that if I update the kernel on the spare, this drive will become unusable again. So, Sos, I would urge you to find a workaround that allows for the device to continue functioning per earlier kernels. It seems from the mail on -current that there are at least a few people affected by this, so I doubt that it is a hardware fault per se. If the information is worth anything, the faultdrive is a Memorex 2452AJ from 2003. The main machine is i860 based (ICH2), the spare is a fairly recent KT400A? AMD/Via based thing.
