The Colony 4 live CD worked on my G5 tower, so this was unexpected.

Has any previous version of ubuntu live-cd worked on this machine? If so, can
you boot to it and get me an lspci and a complete dmesg.

Since the period where you are experiencing this problem is well after the CD
has been used a lot, then I can't say it is an IDE driver error. Sounds to me
like the CD drive is having a hard time reading a certain part of the CD (since
it always occurs at the same time). Could be hw, but let's do some testing to be
sure one way or the other.
