Hi, I've got the same problem with my ide DVD-RW. I can boot 7.10 from DVD and the drive is detected properly. When I boot from 10.04 CD it starts booting but fails after a few seconds, saying that no live system is found.
Here is what I get from dmesg in 7.10: Linux version 2.6.22-14-generic [ 12.352000] Probing IDE interface ide1...
