When it crashes it prints to the screen:
modproSCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
behda: attached ide-scsi driver.
scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 0, scsi0, channel 0, id 0,
lun 0 0x12 00 00 00 ff 00

...maybe that helps somebody?
