Hi Aaron,

Let me explain better:
 I took a look on the BIOS and what I read there is
"CDROM group non-installed". That surprised me!!!
This way, after setting "read CDROM" as the FIRST
priority on the BIOS, I cannot be able to boot from
CD. Consequently, I cannot reinstall Fedora.
Am I missing anything?
Please, let me know.

Thanks!
Hoffmann
