Comments/Problems: This CD boots the kernel but fails at the first modprobe when the system attempts to load the ide-cd driver.
The error message is "Error while running 'modprobe -v ide-cd'.
No CD-rom is detected, even though the kernel has booted from this CDRom.
Current "release beta 4 for SPARC does not load the kernel at all.
