This looks like hardware or media problems with your CD drive, as indicated by
the following messages in your attached dump file.  Did you run the media check?
 Does this drive work for other things?

<4>hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
<4>hdc: command error: error=0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 }
<4>ide: failed opcode was: unknown
<4>ATAPI device hdc:

Comment 5 Tim Webster 2007-01-08 20:56:37 UTC
Media check fails unless you set ide=nodma. These disks install fine on other 
systems. Also this cd drive works great in Win XP and Red Hat 9 as well as 
Ubuntu. Could this be a problem with the drivers for the CD-ROM?

Comment 6 Chris Lumens 2007-03-12 19:43:38 UTC
Perhaps.  I'll reassign to the kernel component for them to investigate that
possibility.

This bug is open for a Fedora version that is no longer maintained and
will not be fixed by Fedora. Therefore we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen thus bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
