I have a similar problem -- I've reset the bios boot settings in an older system I'm working on, but most of the time it thinks there is not cdrom at all in there, and so boots (grub takes over here, in my case -- but sometimes it *does* boot the CD). Is there any hardware magic I can do without messing up this system worse, or is there some grub-ly magic to get a prompt then force it to boot from cdrom? BTW, this box has the avg config of one cdrom, one hard drive, and one floppy (which I haven't tried at all!). I think dust accumulated in the drive is my enemy here... any tips?
regards and thanks a bundle, Ben PS - TCT, The Coroner's Toolkit, is the major forensics package that comes with PLAC (the Portable Linux Auditing CD)... I hadn't played with PLAC for a good while, and when I did get this system to boot I forget where to find that -- I don't think it is in the default path, but you just go to /tct-x.y.z/ and there is all is.
