Install no go.
Install ACPI=off at least gets me som old fashioned curses-style dialog boxes, but which invariably tell me it can't find/mount the cd rom device. going into the System Information dialog to Hard Disks or CD-ROMs tells me it finds the SATA HD, and even all the cute flash-rom thingies. But not the DVD/CD.
========== Normally the drive will be HP branded. Now I'm not sure if they make their own or not, but you can purchase HP Lightscribe drives in the stores. About the only thing that comes to mine right away is the BIOS setting is off. It doesn't sound like it's set to see the DVD first. But I'll assume you have already checked that?
Is the DVD SATA as well as the hard drive? If not, but an ATA, then be sure it's connected to the right plug on the cable, set to master on the second channel. That's all I can suggest at the moment.
If you are refering to boot sequence, yes - I changed that to (1) CD, (2) HD, ... Its ATAPI in the bios. That's about all I can discover.
