I have a Compaq Presario 1218 notebook (AMD 500Mhz 64MB 6GB).

I have had 4.2 installed and running on this machine.  When I try to 
upgrade to 4.4 the boot process from the installation disks stops
with:
Mounting root: /dev/mcd0c

(I typed that from memory.  I'm sure that the device starts with 'm' 
even though the CD drive is 'acd0')

Does anyone have any suggestions what or where I should look for?
