I think i'm seeing this also.. but with DVD movies..
If i insert DVD movie the machine does complete freeze.. and if
the dvd is inside the machine in the boot the boot did kernel
panic in ide-cd...

Kernel: kernel-2.6.12-1.1387_FC4
Didn't see this behaviour with the older kernel: kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4
Maybe they broke something in the kernel... 

.. did some testing.. with working fedora core 4 dvd that newest kernel
crashed.. booted with older kernel and it works.. 

So this seems to be a kernel issue.. should go to bugzilla...
and seems to be there:
