will try to grab it from somewhere later. Note same problem when
booting from floppy, it just doesnt want to find a cd in my adaptec
based cdrom drives. Same for redhat.
On the other hand Suse doesnt like to boot from my scsi's if I
remember, just does it all the way from ide/atapi or the sb16 cdrom
