Hi Michael,

Does your DVD drive still work with the livecd?  If so
you probably don't need to replace the drive.  I ran a
search for those messages from your dmesg:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22BIOS+didn%27t+set+cable+bits+correctly.+Enabling+workaround.%22+%22Wait+for+ready+failed+before+probe+%21%22

This result looks similar to your issue:

http://kerneltrap.org/node/3971

In that case the problem was the ata_piix driver.  Did
you compile the ata_piix driver?

Zac
