The function used here works like this:

#======================================
# CDDevice
#--------------------------------------
function CDDevice {
    # /.../
    # detect CD/DVD device. The function use the information
    # from /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info to activate the drive
    # ----
    for module in usb-storage sr_mod cdrom ide-cd BusLogic;do
        /sbin/modprobe $module
    done
    info="/proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info"
    cddevs=`cat $info | grep "drive name:" | cut -f2 -d: | tr "\t" ":"`
    cddevs=`echo $cddevs | cut -f3- -d:`
    cddevs=`echo $cddevs | tr -d [:space:]`
    IFS=":"; for i in $cddevs;do
        if [ -b "/dev/$i" ];then
            test -z $cddev && cddev=/dev/$i || cddev=$cddev:/dev/$i
        fi
    done
    IFS=$IFS_ORIG
    if [ -z $cddev ]; then
        systemException \
            "Failed to detect CD drive !" \
        "reboot"
    fi
}

This has worked on all test machines, laptops and external USB drives I have
here in my office but it seems something goes wrong. As I can't test this it
would be great if someone can change the file

   /usr/share/kiwi/modules/KIWILinuxRC.sh

search for the CDDevice function and change the the systemException to

   systemException \
       "Failed to detect CD drive !" \
   "shell"

* you need to re-create the iso and give it a test. In case of an error a
  shell appears and you can test why it doesn't find a CD drive

* this iso is a special one as far as I know so you might need help from
  coolo and/or Christoph Thiel

Thanks
