Package: debian-installer
Version: debian stable: 4.0r4a
Severity: normal


Situation:
- IBM p52a
- LPAR with diskspace served via VIOS 1.5 (an LV, not a physical disk)
- CD-ROM is a virtual optical drive served by VIOS LPAR, backed by iso-image of debian install
- virtual console accessed via HMC

The LPAR always succeeds in booting from the CD, e.g. the installer-screen appears.
In most of the cases during the CD-ROM detecting phase the installer says that it cannot use this CD-ROM to install from. Please note: NOT in ALL cases: in some cases it proceeds and starts to 
install packages but then after a few fails with read errors.

This is fixed in daily builds, as told by Folkert in #495928.
