Package: linux-image-2.6-amd64
Version: 2.6.21+8
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

I recently installed Debian Lenny AMD64 from the first installer DVD.
The installation went fine, and the system started OK. But when I
tried to use the CD/DVD writer, I discovered that the kernel didn't
detect it - it was as if there was nothing there. The only SATA or IDE
devices reported are /dev/sda and its partitions (which is the
harddisk). Loading ide-cd didn't help, loading ide-generic printed the
output

Probing IDE interface ide0...
Probing IDE interface ide1...

but still nothing happens, no device files, no output in dmesg.

When I boot from the installer and start the shell, I see a /dev/hdb
device file and /proc/ide/ide0/hdb/model says "TSSTCorp CDDVDW
SN-S082H" (this file does not exist when I run the installed kernel).

I have tried upgrading to the newest 2.6-amd64 kernel and also tried
building my own 2.6.22.5 kernel, it's the same no matter what.
