Seems to have selected the wrong hard disk device as root.

Selected (hd1,0) instead of (hd0,0)

This could have something to do with having to change the BIOS settings to boot
from CDROM.

This machine has internal SCSI disks (2) and IDE (1). You can't boot CDROM and
SCSI in the same boot sequence however (talk about silly bios).

Technically i guess this situation should be handled.... although i'm not sure
quite which way makes sense.... possibly some probing?
