I have succeeded in installing Ubuntu 8.04 on the affected computer, and it has detected the dvd burner correctly. This is what I did:

Use the following kernel parameter when booting from the Ubuntu 8.04 cdrom: all_generic_ide

Here is what I did:
1. Boot from the Ubuntu cdrom
2. At the first screen, press "ESC" to leave the menu.
3. You get a warning, stating that you are leaving the graphical boot menu, click OK to do this.
4. At the prompt, enter "live all_generic_ide"
