Comments/Problems:

With the netinst CD (not tested with business card)
the cdrom drive is not automatically detected as it was
in the past.
Complains about "no common cdrom drive was found"
and prompts me to load a driver from floppy or select a
module out of a displayed list. I chose "none" from 
the list.
Then prompted me to give the mount point: I type
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 and all went fine from there on...


This happens here on three different machines I have, so
this seems most likely not hardware-related or something
like that.




Thanks
