I managed to install Ubuntu 7.10 by unplugging my other dvd-drive. After that, no problems. After ubuntu was installed and working, I reconnected the other dvd-drive. Then, when booting ubuntu, it took quite a long time to boot up, easily 2-3 times longer than usual. I decided to check the dmesg logs, and found the same errors there as earlier. I am attaching the relevant part of the logs here. Seems like my 2 dvd drives are somehow conflicting. My motherboard (Asus P5B deluxe wifi) uses the JMicron JMB363 chip to connect the ide devices to the system, and both my dvd drives were connected to that controller.
