I don't know if this is at all the same issue, but I have a laptop,
whose CDROM stops spinning when it thinks it isn't used, and if
the CDROM isn't spinning, sysinstall will spit out errors when it
tries to use it. A second or so later, the drive will start
spinning, and if I re-try the sysinstall action that needed the
CDROM, it will succeed. (Sorry, I don't recall the error messages;
this was during install, I've misplaced my notebook, and I've had
no similar problems since completing install.)
