Any way of passing this as a boot parameter? Because I also encountered
this when trying to boot Linux from a USB CD-ROM drive. The BIOS part
worked fine, but the moment Linux loaded USB support it failed, due to
the same problem. This is also why I asked if this failure mode could be
handled automatically.
