Unable to install using SCSI CD drive

[nathan42100]

Has been happening since 7.04.

Fix (for now): Switch to IDE CD drive.

From what I've seen, its a problem with the linux kernel.

Does the problem occurr while booting or while installing. Can you run the live CD on SCSI drive. Please give detailled information how to reproduce the bug.

Does your SCSI drive work well with an installed system?

While installing and it wasn't tested using a live disk, only a server disk, but If I recall correctly, it happened with live versions too.

Hi nathan42100, is the problem still there?
If not, we can close this bug.

I have no idea, I don't use them anymore.

When I was installing it, I needed to use an IDE drive (I think, it had a
ribbon cable, but it was larger than a normal IDE drive, which might be
because it was a slim CD and floppy drive) and the SCSI drive wasn't
installing it. I tried a few different drives and different disks as well as
the normal and alternate installs for desktop and server versions
