Should work, so far as I know.  Please can you give more information:

What CD are you trying to install from? 0.9 ISO? 0.9.1 ISO?
(0.9.1 ISO has some problems, I hope a fixed one will be posted
soon).

Serial console or graphical console?

Does the system find the CDROM when you do a SEArch?

What happens when you try the install, exactly?

Serial Console.

Yes, CD info is displayed during search. The CD ROM is a Toshiba make.

Well, when I try to boot through the CD, I get the following message.
"Boot Device not Ready
  Retrying boot device...'
I am kinda doubting the way I burned the CD. I will ckech this. It
shouldn't be
that case.

It is an iso9660 CD, so you should be able to read it on other
systems, to check the CD itself looks ok.
