Hi Ivan,
1st: can you take a look at the output on console 2 (press Alt+2) and
send it to me.
2nd: can you find out the lines where the kernel finds the cdrom during
boot and send them, too.
3rd: could you please CC every message in a thread to the appropriate
mailing list, too?
4th: please don't top posting. It's more comfortable for most people
reading from top to bottom to gain the entire message and not reading
your answer before the could read the questions / assumtions I sent.
Greetings,
Jens
