bootcdwrite tries to check the kernel configuration (usually
/boot/config-VERSION). It looks for compiled in ramdisk support, ...

Because you compiled a kernel by yourself and didn't copy the .config
file of your toplevel kernel source directory to /boot/config-VERSION
bootcdwrite pukes this warning. If you're sure you have all needed stuff
compiled into your kernel you can simply ignore this message.

Did you try to replace your cdrom?
