2 Questions....
1. Is your DVD writer an internal ATA or an external USB device?
2. If the answer to 1 was ATA, have you checked /var/log/dmesg looking for
what comes after "Probing IDE interface"? If the answer to 1 was USB, have
you tried booting without the device attached and then doing a "tail -f" on
/var/log/messages to see the systems reaction to the event.
