That is because someone goofed around with your /etc/fstab and changed 
the last two columns for /dev/cdrom from "0 0" to something else. 
Basically what it did was made your fsck run on the vfat file system do 
you remember the last time you ran scandisk on your hard disk :). The 
alpha support warning was because it was running on a vfat filesystem.

You might want to look at /var/log/messages and see what the kernel says 
when it boots up.
