I'm having the same problem with an MSI-6534 (845M) motherboard. It looks like the ata_piix driver is getting loaded before the ide driver and hooking the CDROM before the IDE driver can get to it. Something similar is described here:

with potential fixes...I haven't had a chance yet to rebuild the CD to see if this solves the problem.
