You probably don't have to.

The problem is likely the package-path variable, which defaults to a CD on
/dev/hda.  To override this, start with a blank, formatted, 1.4Meg floppy,
and create a single text file called "pkgpath.cfg" in the root directory.
The contents of this file should be a single line with the same format as
the PKGPATH= part of the kernel command line in syslinx.cfg, or in your
case, probably something like:

/dev/hdd:iso9660

replacing /dev/hdd with the device ID of your CD-ROM drive.

Note the CD is only setup to boot from IDE CD-ROM drives...if you have a
SCSI controller and CD, you'll need to make a custom root.lrp package that
contains drivers for your scsi card and scsi CD drives.
