I have the same problem.  My 4 year old i386 test box doesn't see it as
bootable (4.[01] CDs work fine).  The CD seems ok - no problem pulling
kernels, sets, and packages off it.  It boots on my newer machines, and
even on an ancient (ca. 1999) NetVista.  I haven't had any other issues
with the drive itself.

dmesg after manual upgrade on the no-boot box:
