Which version of TL?  Sometimes older kernels don't like newer CD-ROM
drives.  I remember, just as an example, that we had a couple of 24x
drives that 2.0.30 would not talk to, but .31 and above would.  So if
you're trying to install TL 1.0, that might be the problem.  Otherwise,
... what kind of CD-ROM drive is that?
