Looks like a Mitsumi.

> ACER CD-787E/JAS/22N7

Here is another that works o.k. (as a master on the secondary controller)
in 2.2-ALPHA/boot.flp:
Manufacturer  MITSUMI
Model-No.     CRMC-FX600S
Manufactured  Feb. '96

BTW, is it still mandatory for the install program that the CD
is inserted when the machine is booted ?
(I think to remember s.th. like that was required. I usually do this,
but this *may* explain Input/Output errors when install tries to
mount it. ???)
