Ahh, now that makes sense. pktsetup calls `/sbin/modprobe pktcdvd`
explicitly, the blacklist entry doesn't help for that. Without the
kernel module renamed, does the 2nd DVD-RAM result in the blocking
behaviour?

It's a tad better now :-)

Given the lack of upstream response, the driver being orphaned, a
working setup even without the module I think we'll go with disabling
that module.

Thanks for your report and helpful testing,
