That's hald polling for media presence and the kernel is timing it out. This
is usually caused by drives locking up on continuous polling, which is done by
trying to open the cdrom device. The open command sequences used by IDE cdrom
driver and SCSI cdrom driver (sr) can be different under some circumstances and
this might be causing the problem. Can you please do the followings to verify?
* Change driver back to sata_via. Let such failures occur several times and
attach the result of "dmesg" here.
* Disable polling on both devices using "hal-disable-polling /dev/sr0;
hal-disable-polling /dev/sr1"
* Reboot and check that both cdroms work fine. Auto-mount and stuff won't work
but everything else should. Post the result of "dmesg" after doing so.
You can change to mount-by-UUID or mount-by-volName, which is default for fresh
installs. That way switching between the two drivers won't require updating
fstab.
Thanks.
