Description Eric Whiting 2005-08-12 22:39:14 UTC
Sony Z505LS laptop. 

Booting CD1 in external/pcmcia based cdrom -- select installation -- it gives
you no display. 

If you select 'installation - acpi off' then the install starts, but drops you
to text mode linuxrc. Trying to 'start installation' from that screen indicates
that it can't see the cd at all. The box just booted from the CDROM, but once
the regular kernel loads I guess the system is confused about how to access the
install CD.
