The BIOS will boot from a bootable CD if it can, but when the kernel
comes to init the controller it may not be able to. I had this problem
with my Vaio (firewire CDROM).
Its not possible to cover every option for failure on the website, it
does offer some avenues to consult for assistance, and you've found one
;-)
If you post more details (hardware etc) we might be able to help you
out.
