>Description:
unlike its predecessor, the boot.flp of 3.0 release does not probe the
atapi cd rom. I HAD the 2.2.6RELEASE on my machine, I lost it and I can't
install the new one.
The message:'no CDROM...' while it's the same cdrom drive I used to install
the 2.2.6 release.

State-Changed-Why:  
ATAPI cdroms are probed, else we'd have almost no users.  A new updated 
PR on newer releases with this problem, if it still occurs, would be 
appreciated, though. 

Thanks for your submission.
