[olug] 486-33 chokes on cdrom

[Mike McNally]

A friend said to make sure the one harddrive was jmpr'd to master.  It
was jumperless so I tried that with all 3 possibilities of jumper setting
on the cd and that didn't help.  But he did advice me that it shoud be 
able to detect the cd if I only figure out what's wrong.
