When the DVD is booted it starts with a grub menu where it asks you if
you want to install, rescue, etc. You can edit like a normal grub menu
because that's what it is.

I have my Inspiron 530 set to SATA mode using kernel option irqpoll
For example here is my grub line:

title Fedora (2.6.24.4-64.fc8)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.24.4-64.fc8 ro
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 irqpoll rhgb quiet
        initrd /initrd-2.6.24.4-64.fc8.img

Thanks,

Erich
