It was a firmware problem. Here's what to do. Boot the PC, and press F9 at the appropriate moment to run the BIOS configuration program. Under the section "Advanced Options", change "Virtual install disk" from enabled to disabled. Reboot, and the kernel boots correctly from cD-ROM. (As it turns out I booted off a 4.8 iso, because that is what I had handy. I assume that it would work correctly for 5.1 too). David Landgren
