Do you get the same result from the 4.1.23 download?

You should not need an external terminator unless you have external SCSI
devices. If you have disable all of the internal termination, adding an
external terminator could make it work again.
It sounds like you have both an internal CDROM and internal disk drive.
The drive at the end of the bus needs to have its termination enabled.
