The Ultra 5 and 10 use EIDE/ATAPI CDROM's. IIRC, 'boot cdrom' goes to the
secondary IDE and tries the master drive. Although a simple autoprobe should
locate the CDROM, it seems not to do so -- I traded for an Ultra 5 that
wouldn't boot from anything. Turned out the IDE cables were crossed.

Likewise, on the Ultra 5 and 10 the boot hard drive is /dev/hda, not /dev/sda!
