Description of problem:
The RHEL 3.0 WS update 2 CD1 fails to boot on a PC with a SCSI CD-ROM
drive. On boot, I see the following two lines on my screen:

isolinux: loading spec packet failed, trying to wing it
isolinux: Failed to locate CD-ROM device; boot failed.

The SCSI adapter is Adaptec 2940. The CDROM drive is being reported by
Linux as: 

  Vendor: NEC       Model: CD-ROM DRIVE:464  Rev: 1.04
  Type:   CD-ROM                             ANSI SCSI revision: 02

This system is very old (Pentium 2 class) and it used to boot just
fine using RedHat Linux 7.3 installation CDROM. I have tested the CD1
on other systems with IDE CDROM drives and it seems to work fine there.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attempt to boot the installation CD1 on the system
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  boot fails with the above messages

Expected Results:  the installation program should have started.
