Dear friends,

I'm trying to install Mandrake Linux 8.0 beta 1 for PPC on my older
PowerMac 7300 (MacOS 9.0.4). The installer has a problem with
recognizing of CDROM. I use standardly imparted MATSHITA SCSI CDROM unit.

I can't boot from install-cd. When I started Linux installer via BootX,
it asked me how to install. I choosed CDROM. Installer wroted me "No
CDROM device found".

Here are some related messages that I catched from screens called out by
pressing command-F3:

* looking for scsi media
* have to insmod sd_mod
* needs sd_mod
* file-not-found-in-archive sd_mod.o
* warning, insmod failed (sd_mod (null)) (-2)

------------
screen called out by pressing command-F4:

<4> scsi: 0 hosts
<4> scsi: detected total
...
<3> kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno=2
