Comments/Problems:
After selecting language etc. the installer quits with message stating wrong
cd or can't read from cd. This is an ongoing problem inherent to previous
installer cd's. I've tried them all. Going to a shell prompt, the cd is mounted.
This is not a cd read/write problem. Multible cd's tested. The installer
appears to "lose" the cd at this point i.e. it cannot be tested and the only
thing to do is abort.
