Found when testing d-i on netinst CDs like the special i386 Mac
netinst build - we don't offer to scan other CDs or DVDs when booting
off a netinst.

Looking in the code, this is clearly deliberate, as netinsts are not
part of a larger set. However, we've moved on since then and we're now
explicitly offering netinst variants to make things easier for people
(firmware-included builds, mac netinst, etc.) so it would make more
sense to change the design here now.

We need to think about this and come up with a better plan...
