- Mounting a cd is incredibly slow for the first time after a reboot (10 minutes) after it's mounted, everything is fine, all CDs mount quickly. When I reboot, the next cd is slow again

- When you go to mount the cd for the first time, open up a console and type:
# tail -f /var/log/messages
Monitor this log to see if there are any errors.

- Install the 'hdparm' package if it is not already installed, and then as
root, type:
# hdparm -d 0 /dev/hda
This will disable DMA, which is causing your problem.
This is a kernel issue, and should be resolved with the latest kernel from
the security updates. Which kernel are you using?
