Hi Roman,

Some users appreciate the boot floppy even if the PC can successfully boot up the CD. 
Because it is a way sometimes to supply parameters to the Linux kernel instead of 
entering them at the boot prompt.

The el torito boot sector simulates a bootable device, like a floppy or a hard disk. 
Phoenix worked on the el torito specifications so I guess your bios might be aware of 
this format. 
There is perhaps a bug in the bios, but honestly, I would not change it because it 
can't boot the CD. 
I would simply check that the CD is clean for example. 
Best regards,
Gilles
