Thanks Jani,
I never thought that this will be such a serious(kernel) issue instead I was imagining that the issue may be due to some rpms I installed recently. I only hope that reverting back to older kernel: kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4
should be the workaround. Please confirm and also tell the exact procedure to revert to older kernel, I wait for ur confident reply.
On the lighter side I think the compilation or rpm build for kernel-2.6.12-1.1387_FC4 was done by the person with some dvd/cd in drive!!

I think i'm seeing this also.. but with DVD movies..
If i insert DVD movie the machine does complete freeze.. and if
the dvd is inside the machine in the boot the boot did kernel
panic in ide-cd...
Kernel: kernel-2.6.12-1.1387_FC4
Didn't see this behaviour with the older kernel: kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4
Maybe they broke something in the kernel...
.. did some testing.. with working fedora core 4 dvd that newest kernel
crashed.. booted with older kernel and it works..
So this seems to be a kernel issue.. should go to bugzilla...
and seems to be there:
