Comments/Problems:
This computer CDROM combo can boot to woody disk 1 just fine, so
mutli-boot works (well at least for woody.) Problem seems to be with
the CDROM CDU311 drive as this same cdrom drive also failed to boot on
a compact Deskpro 4000 (PII 266) which also booted/installed woody off of
woody CD 1 with no problems.
Also note the media is good. I have checked the md5sums and booted to it
on my newest machine (don't laugh) a K-7 duran 800mhz.
