I'am afraid it is not that problem, as I can boot both ISOLINUX and 
SYSLINUX CD's correctly, but not beta-1 sarge-i386-netinst.

I have the same problem in my SAMSUNG SC-148P CD-ROM connected to an 
ASUS TX97-X mainboard.

The CD boots no problem in a Sony PCGA-CD5 PCMCIA CD-ROM drive and in 
a Sony PCGA-CRWD1 IEEE 1394 CD-RW/DVD-ROM drives (both connected to a 
Sony PCG-C1MV notebook).

The sarge-i386-netinst snapshots 20030817 and 20030928 booted 
correctly. Both where ISOLINUX 1.75. I have also tried CD 1 and 2 from 
an old Debian GNU/Linux 2.3 "Woody" - fsn.hu's i386 Binary-* (20010524). 
These where both SYSLINUX 1.48 1999-09-26 and also boot correctly in 
all my CD-ROM drives.
