Bug Description

When trying to install they yakkety beta-2 candidate iso in a VM it hangs on trying to mount the cdrom drive. Poking around, I find there's no device node for the cdrom in /dev, and indeed no modules for it. For my VM it seems I need at minimum drivers/scsi/sr_mod.ko and drivers/cdrom/cdrom.ko.

Addition to comment#2 This is on bare metal. An x201 that DOES NOT have an actual CD-ROM drive.
