Hi,
In atapi_wait in atapi.c there is a five-second wait defined.  It
takes my atapi CD-Rom drive (a Stingray 8422 8X (Aarghh!)) six or
seven seconds to respond to a probe.  During booting therefore it
always reports a drive not ready error.  If I increase the delay to
ten seconds, everything works fine.
BTW, for the past couple of weeks, the snake screen saver (and possibly
the others) have not loaded correctly as saver_init isn't defined.
