Aha... I can answer this one as I had the same problem. The answer is
in the FM, but cunningly hidden away.

You use AmiCDFS or other CDFilesystems and the new BlizzardPPC or   
CyberstormPPC FlashUpdate is installed.!! It does NOT matter if it`s a
SCSI CDROM or not...it also effects IDE. !!

Change the 0x43444653 (CDFS) dostype in the (AmiCDFS) mountlist.
Add a 1 at the last number for example. OR add the line FORCELOAD = 1

otherwise it`s using the Phase5 CDFilesystem which may not do what you
want it to do. The CDRive filesystem is always added to the
filesystem.resource with the 0x43444653 ID
