Let me prune this down.

Here's the boot probe output:

> wdc0 not found at 0x1f0
> wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa

Hm, no CDROM found.

1.  To what controller is your CDROM attached?  Is it set master/single or
slave?
2.  Why not use a SCSI CDROM?  It's much more reliable than the cheap IDE
ones floating around, and you already have the SCSI controller.
