Try booting 2.6.16 with the following options:
libata.atapi_enabled=1 ide0=noprobe ide1=noprobe
-----
Still no go. /dev/sda* is created for the hard drive but no CD-ROM and
the same ATAPI error in dmesg.
I would try the following:
yum update
and boot the kernel and see what modules are linked to the cdrom. I am
thinking it is the sr_mod module. I would check to see if its compiled
in the 2.6.16 code.
