Hi there!

I recently received my new notebook and I am planing to install Sourcemage on 
it. But sadly I am stuck quite at the beginning of the installation-process.
I boot from the CD with the newest image (9.3 i386), hit enter and then get 
to the initrd menu. There I try "Continue booting" but then I receive this 
message: "Unable to boot without a root"
I tried a older image (9.2 with 2.4 kernel) but this version even got my pc 
crashed after saying something about beein unable to mount the cd-rom.
My laptop has only an external CD-drive which is connected via firewire.

Does anybody have an idea how I could solve this problem?
Thanks in advance
