I am opening this conversation again about CD support in VirtualBox:
It is true that the delay of UIDE at boot can be solved by selecting
ICH9 and Enable IO APIC in VirtualBox (> System->Motherboard).
Unfortunately this breaks networking in VirtualBox 4.0.12 and 4.1.4.

Upgraded to VirtualBox 4.1, used the settings you said, and UIDE loads fast
now. (And CD access still works.) But I don't get an EDD error, I get this:

Unfortunate. Ah well, was worth a shot.

That won't help. Jack, author of UIDE, reminded me that UIDE is written
for hardware with perfect (thus no bugs) PCI capabilities. Some real
systems might have expose hardware/firmware bugs with respect to UIDE
querying it. Em

Have you tried UIDEJR instead?

I'm using VirtualBox as well. I didn't have any problems with
1.1-test1 but I am unable to format the disk using 1.1-test2. I have
tried creating a new virtual machine with an empty hard drive image
(same as test1) but it still doesn't work.

I remember reading
Probably just a bug / flaw in the emulator, no surprise. (They don't
test DOS as much, if at all, sadly.)
File a bug report with them! Sure, they'll probably ignore it, but if
you don't ask, they definitely won't (can't?) fix it!!:-)

The first line (starting with "UIDE.SYS") stays there for 19 seconds. Then
the second one (starting with "IDE0 Controller") stays there for 49 seconds.
Then I get that error message. In a real machine, UIDE loads lightning
quick.
