I had the same problem trying to install LM 7.2 and LM 8.0 on an Emachine
computer. It would boot from the CD but failed then to find the CD for
installation. LM 7.1 did install fine from CDrom. It appears to be a kernel
problem. Go into the images dir on the installation CD and check the
alternatives folder. I successfully booted and used the
cdrom.img-2.2.14-BADZ2 image. It might have been the cdrom.img-2.2.19-BADZ2.
Try them both.
