ubuntu server on ibm xseries 232

[Florian]

Thanks for this hint.
In the thread i can find some workarounds for systems which are already
installed, but
I want to install a new system and have the CD/DVD-Problem with install-CD.
The installer thinks, that my CD is broken and stops installing.

Bye, Florian
