I am using AMD 1.2Gig w/ 512Meg Ram, MSI 6330-K7ProA motherboard.

hda: QUANTUM FIREBALLP LM10.2, ATA DISK drive
hdb: IBM-DPTA-372050, ATA DISK drive
hdc: ATAPI 52X CDROM, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdd: PLEXTOR CD-R PX-W8432T, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

base install is Mandrake 8.0 from CD
it did not work and then tried latest cooker kernel 2.4.5-8 same thing.
I have also tried redhat 7.1 with all recommended updates 2.4.3-12 kernel
same thing.

using ide-scsi module.
SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
Vendor: PLEXTOR Model: CD-R PX-W8432T Rev: 1.09
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02

when trying to mount a CD in the plextor the system accesses the drive for a
few seconds then hangs the process hangs and can not be killed.
If I use X-CD-Roast it tries to access the drive and after a few seconds the
CPU goes to 100% usage and hangs the machine, have to hard reset it can not
sys-req it either.

The other CD-Rom drive works great.

This setup works great under a dual boot of Windows 2000, and I can access
the drive and burn CD's all day long.

cdrecord --scanbus see's the drive the until the first time I try to access
it the drive, then cdrecord --scanbus hangs.
