I have installed the 2.0.5. release, to finally be able to 
use my panasonic 562 cdrom player. When booting, the system detects
the cdrom player( I manually specified the irq & address), but when I
try to mount the device, I get a kernel panic.
As far as I can tell, the system doesn't give any cdrom specific 
error messages, just a page fault.
Building a new kernel didn't solve the problem.
Does anybody has a clue how to solve this problem?

Thanks.
