Hello,

I had the same problem. What helped for me was to connect the CD/DVD rom to the Primary IDE connector on the mainboard.
Then it will find the filesystem.
Good luck with it

When the following day i was trying an Ubuntu Live CD I encountered the same problem. The DVD writer was not recognised. I found out that when i changed the BIOS setting 'Onboard IDE Operate Mode' from Enhanced Mode to Compatible Mode it worked again.
I have an Asus P4P800E Deluxe Mainboard and a NEC 3540 DVD writer on the Secondary IDE port.

I have experienced the same problem as RonC with the most recent release (4.02 I think).
I'm not keen to connect the optical drive to the primary IDE as I want the boot HD to connect to it, so I tried the IDE setting changes (to compatible mode) but it took the CD drive away from windows....
Any other ideas guys?
