Somebody succeeded in installing Ultrix4.1 on a DEC5400 directly from
CD-ROM ?

I can boot from the CD-ROM with >>boot ra(0,0,0)vmunix; then the
installation-procedure starts and ask for the installation device;
the one and only choice I can make is a TK70 tapeunit, but the kernel
from CD doesn't seem to find the CD. Is it a bug in Ultrix4.1 or
is there something wrong with the configuration (like wrong unit-
numbers etc.) ??
