If hdd is where your CD drive is located, that's the culprit. Either
it's trying to load it at a bad time (like, maybe after an ide-scsi
module), another module that it depends on isn't available, the drive
isn't answering the call (disconnected cable, bad drive, etc) or
something even more mysterious, like a bad master/slave setting on it or
the one sitting on the master connector.
