kernel panic under install CD boot (cd9660-related)

Hi, I've got a bit of a problem with the install CD. I've tested this on
2.0 and 2.1.0-DEV (i.e. the daily iso downloadable on 2008.08.22). This
happens way before I can make any sort of FS, but the same machine's
booted up XP, Kubuntu and FBSD5.4.
Anyway, what I can see on the bootup screen of that machine now is as
follows:
<quote>
iso_mountroot: can't find rootvp
Root mount failed: 6
Mounting root from cd9660:acd0
no disk named 'acd0'
setrootbyname failed
iso_mountroot: can't find rootvp
Root mount failed: 6
Mounting root from cd9660:acd1
no disk named 'acd1'
setrootbyname failed
iso_mountroot: can't find rootvp
Root mount failed: 6
Mounting root from cd9660:/dev/acd0a
no disk named 'acd0a'
setrootbyname failed
iso_mountroot: can't find rootvp
Root mount failed: 6

When I then type "panic", the following appears:

<quote>

I've run this twice in a row just to verify all the values, in case they
changed. They didn't.
If there is any more information I can provide, please do tell. This
system is not in use in any other way, all data on the HDs etc is
discardable, so anything goes.
