Hi Dave,

What you need to do is disable ide-scsi. In your /etc/grub.conf file, find 
the "kernel" line for the 2.6.0-test10 line, and remove "ide-scsi" from 
it.

For some reason ide-scsi is broken, so you have to remove it and your 
cdrom will work. Unfortunately, be aware that some softare (e.g. cdrecord) 
will try to look for /dev/scd0 (the scsi cdrom drive that ide-scsi 
emulates), so they'll have to be told to use /dev/hdg or /dev/cdrom 
directly.
