   LiveCD 2008 cannot mount media

   Hi ng,   
      
   I have some problems booting the Gentoo LiveCD (2008.0). After 'boot:   
   gentoo' the kernel modules are successfully loaded, until, after setting   
   the keymap, it searches "attempting to mount media= -  /dev/sr0. That it   
   does twice and this ist was. Landing in a root shell, I have tried to mount   
   it manually, but it works not. The boot options nodetect and all the stuff   
   and all the solution offered by google do not work too.   
   I would like to launch the graphical installer of gentoo. Is this a bug? (In   
   the gentoo bug list it seems to be so.) And what can I do to get over this   
   problem?   
      
   PC is a notebook (hp pavilion ze4360EA) with Mobile Athlon XP2400+, a little   
   bit old yet. ;-) - And sorry for my 'German' English...
