As I've allready told the problem is that kernel does not see my CD
which is
non-IDE Panasonic interface x2 CD manufactured by Reveal.
The CD is connected to Creative Labs Sound Blaster Pro and 
it resides at address 0x230.

I also think that according to matcd it is type 0 id 1, but I'm
not sure about this.

During the bootup the lamp on CD goes on but kernel moves on saying 
matcd not found at 0x230. I know that to Linux it takes about a min.
to initialize the  CD, that's why it was always compiled as on-demand
module. Still, in Linux it takes about min. to finish commands like
xmcd and mount /dev/sbpcd.

About my additional hardware here is my dmesg:
