That *#)%*!!! CD-ROM player

I bought an Apple CD ROM player (the developer's discount being too good
to pass up) and now I've got a strange problem. My Mac II won't even boot
with the setup disk. The setup disk has System 6.0.2 and the CD ROM player
driver on it. I did manage to get the driver into my system folder, but with
the driver in place, the system won't boot. It hangs at the "Welcome to Mac"
sign. Now, I did remove all inits - no change. And to make it stranger -
the setup disk WILL boot in my SE/30.

I really don't want to put the CD ROM player on the SE/30 - that's my
A/UX machine. Does anyone out there have any knowledge of the CD ROM player
and could give me a hint? My Mac II has 5 meg RAM, a Radius 2 page display
(the startup monitor), and Apple color monitor, a tape backup, a Jasmine
external drive, and a DaynaFile. The startup disk is the internal hard
drive. Oh - there's also an AST 286 board inside. Could any of this
be causing the conflict? I'm really stumped...
