CDROM: older Mitsumi drives (FX001-D)

Symptom:

Already at the first boot of the Linux installation from CD, everything appears to be correctly detected by kernel (the CD-ROM drive too), but the installation gets stuck at the root images' load from the CD.

Cause:

Older Mitsumi drives apparently cannot always start or react fast enough either to the kernel's enquiries in the correct (short) time during the bootkernel's seeking process on the CD.

Solution:

Hint:

The described problem appears only during the installation. There are no problems if it is accessed to the CDROM while running a programme.
