More testing.  Using the CDROM that boots fine on my Miata(MX5) on the
4100, I find that the CDROM isn't accessable from the loader.  Even doing
an ``ls'' from the loader hangs.  Note that this has always worked on my
Miata (even with the current /boot/cdboot rather than the 4.0-R one).

This behavior seems the same with floppies.  So for some reason the
loader is unable to access any of our bits from the installation media
[in the non-harddisk case].
