Ok, I tried the most up-to-date image and here's what I got:

1. The situation is exactly the same trying out of the box. It runs on my CD drive, but fails and ends in initramfs prompt when booted from my DVD drive.
2. I tried looking through the messages as far as I could go, and there was *no* modprobe abnormal exit, so as far as I can tell, that's not the case for me. Something else is failing.
3. I tried the solution suggested in the bug 84964 you pointed, and indeed, adding `irqpoll ` to kernel options solves the problem of booting from my DVD drive.

I copied over the logs and lspci outputs from both boots (from CD and DVD drives) so if you need any of those just ask.

Also, since I booted from the DVD without the splash and quiet options I also found two more things:

1. There is a failed action during system shutdown, i.e.
`* Unmounting temporary filesystems...
umount: /cow not found [fail]`
2. When the CD is ejected at the last stage of the shutdown, pressing ENTER doesn't work, it just appends ^M and does nothing more... is input ignored without usplash running?

Well that's about it, if you need any more info or testing just let me know.
