Bug#250677: debian-installer: CDrom detection fails on Compqa Prof. WS 5100
Package: debian-installer
Severity: important
This is a dual PentiumII 333MHz, with 2xscsi-discs and sym53c875, and a
triflex(?) ide controller with a matshita CR585 (Creative CDROM)
if I try to manually mount the cdrom with the command
mount /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /cdrom
I get segfault, but if i try without a cdrom inserted, I nothing wrong happens.
see http://bugs.skolelinux.no/show_bug.cgi?id=731 for more info
a workaround:
Pressing Alt+F2 and loading ide-detect and ide-cd before choosing language
solves the problem, because then the other ide-modules fails to load.
It's a bit anoying to ignore the error messages that comes up 10-15 times, but
it works.
