I might also add that there are probably quite a few of us
who've always been using scsi cdroms, also to keep the machine
ide-free... and that pc bioses often have extreme trouble booting
from scsi cdroms, if at all (I've never seen a PC myself where
this worked), so the only option is floppies, or netboot.
