* First, check that you have the read/write permissions on the dvd device.

(Do Something like : chmod 666 /dev/hd* as root)

* If you want to see if your drive has DMA enabled, try the utility
 'hdparm' to diagnose / set parameters on your IDE device.
But I don't think this second point is necessary.
