Hello,
It is a pity that people like me who
are trying to run the liveCD from
their CDrom drive got an error
because they have a sata CDrom drive.
This is putting people off…
This is just a remark.
Greetings,
Ran
Is your SATA AHCI compliant?
Try setting SATA to legacy (IDE) mode in your BIOS and see what happens. This works for me for hard drive and I believe DVD-RW drive too.
Haiku supports AHCI SATA devices. You probably have non-AHCI SATA and those require specific driver (depending on SATA chipset) to support your hardware.
Haiku developers won’t really be able to help you unless you report a bug.
If there are no bugs reported, no dev knows about the problem, and it won’t get fixed.
It might be a little confusing at first, but not that hard, and it helps everyone by making Haiku better.

No, in my bios I see a AHCI device.
And my CDrom boots HAIKU but then I see a kind of command line.
But USB booting works, pity it’s too slow = old USB stick.

Your CDROM is connected with SATA from what I read. That command line, KDL (Kernel Debugging Land), is a system crash.
type bt, take a photo and attach it to a similar ticket (or new one if none like yours).
Also, boot with USB drive, open terminal, type listdev and attach that output to the ticket.

My guess, your BIOS boots your CDROM, then Haiku tries to load SATA driver and causes Haiku to crash but your bt output will give more information on the crash itself.
I hope you will create a bug report! When my Haiku wouldn’t start on my computer, I created a bug report. I gave the Haiku developers the information and “screenshots” (using a digital camera) they needed. The bug was fixed in about a week.
