I actually don't mind compiling and trying lots of different kernels.
It's a fast machine; I could set it up to compile a lot of kernels
overnight, and in the morning it would just take a few minutes per kernel
to install, reboot, and see if the problem is still there.

That would be really helpful. This problem seems to occur for me with
all CD-Rs burnt under Windows using Adaptec DirectCD.

I would also be happy to apply kernel patches and retest. Is there
anyone familiar with the ATAPI code in the kernel who could provide some
guidance?
