Exact error messages:
                                                                                                                                                                                                     
Attempting to mount it gives (after the long wait):
    mount: No medium found
and dmesg logs:
    cdrom: open failed.
                                                                                                                                                                                                     
This is the Ubuntu Warty Warthog (4.10) kernel: 2.6.8.1.
