Hi David,
Thanks, you have given me a starting point. Looing further up on DMESG I 
found:

hdb: AÔAÐI DÖD­RÏM 1¶XÍaø                   , ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

The strange thing is that it mounts fine and df does not show anything 
weird. However, my messages file show:

Dec 14 11:59:44 tux kernel: ATAPI device hdb:
Dec 14 11:59:44 tux kernel:   Error: Not ready -- (Sense key=0x02)
Dec 14 11:59:44 tux kernel:   (vendor-specific error) -- (asc=0xba, 
ascq=0x00)
Dec 14 11:59:44 tux kernel:   The failed "Test Unit Ready" packet 
command was:
Dec 14 11:59:44 tux kernel:   "00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 "

This goes on and on to fill up to 250MB of warnings!!!

Any ideas?

Saludos,

Arturo
