We have the exact same problem with a Memorex CDROM. We are not able to install 3.1 Release at this time. If you find a solution, please pass it our way. We've tried exchanging IDE cables, moving the jumper from MASTER to CSEL, and swapping the drive with another mfg. I'm pulling my hair out. We are using an AOPEN 6b+ motherboard, but I have the same motherboard in 11 other servers and they are fine.
