Comments/Problems:
The install CD boots perfectly, but when it comes to detecting the cd-rom device it tells me that there is no cd in the drive or that I have to install it manually. When I try a manual install with the 'cdrom' driver it does not work.
I have an IDE cdrom-drive that normally is installed on /dev/hdc. Currently the machine holds a Debian testing system and the cd-rom device is detected as Toshiba XM-1702BC, ATAPI.
An lsmod in VC2 shows ide-cd.
