I'm getting the following error trying to do a CDROM install of 3.0-RELEASE
on an HP Vectra 486/33u with an Adaptec 1740, SCSI Disk and SCSI CDROM:

No CDROM devices found! Please check that your system's configuration is
correct and that the CDROM drive is of a supported type.  For more
information, consult the hardware guide in the Doc menu.

However, the CDROM appears to be detected at boot:

I tried to use the "fixit" floppy to gain further insight, but I have been
unsuccessful in getting sysinstall to load the "fixit" floppy.  This same
system works fine with 2.2.8-RELEASE.

Any suggestions or comments would be welcome.  Please be sure to "cc" my
