Put the LS-120 and the CDROM drive on the same controller.  I have my
machine setup with the ls120 as master on ATA1 and my DVD-RW as secondary,
running 5.2-R on my machine with no problems.  On ATA0 I have a pair of
HDDs, but one or two won't matter so long as you jumper the drive as
single master for ATA0.
