In my case, the problem results from changes from 2.6.25 to 2.6.26 in the sata_nv driver
(sata_nv.c).
Applying this patch (which is only an experiment) http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/20/51
prevents the endless reset loops. And the DVD drive is usable
as with 2.6.25.
Still, I am surprised that I am the only person with this particular mainbord /
DVD drive combination.
