If you can get a look at what the system considers cdrom I think you'll find it's probably your first drive. Which would explain why when the DVD drive is the only one present everything works. If you can find a way to specify the DVD drive specifically by finding out what device Linux considers it to be and substituting that for 'cdrom' you may be able to get it to work. This definitely seems to be a kernel-options issue though so if you focus your efforts there you may be able to find a solution somehow. Good luck.
