This looks more like a conflict between the sound card and the CD burner
than a kernel problem. Specifically I find very strange the CD burner
would not work with White-Box Linux. What kind of CD burner do you have
that won't work with a 2.4 kernel with ide-scsi ?
Have you checked the BIOS and your hardware ?
