You are booting from the first optical drive.

There are obviously two of them.

IMVHO, 'webmaster' is probably not the best name for a user (especially
when you add your real name to it) - it's a role or function :^)

Like I said, you are booting from the first optical drive, yet you
provide the second as the location of sets.

Does that mean that you have burnt two CDs and both are in the drives?
If so, and strange as it is, is the 2nd CD burnt correctly? Did you
mount and verify it?

Why don't you simply provide 'cd0', i.e. the one you boot from, as the
location of the sets? It's already there as the default suggestion.
