Last year I purchased the creative lab multimedia package and originally had the same problem. My work-around was to not connect the cdrom to the sound board (which is an IDE controller), but connected it to one of my other HDD cables as a secondary drive. If you only have one IDE controller and you already have two disk drives, then you can use the sound card as your second HDD controller. Nothing special needs to be done in the kernel to make this work.
