Okay, thanks for explaining. Figured it might help Peter too with the 
explanation.

Oh, sorry I did not address the earlier cdrom sr0 mount points question. 
Figured it's best on a separate post. I think most likely Peter's boot 
info script is generated from a livecd boot hence the resulting mount 
points.

If that is the case, it also mean that Peter's computer should be able 
to handle running of Ubuntu (which I wonder earlier, considering his 
celeron, etc specs) which again is good to know. Also it cannot be from 
a running OS, otherwise he won't have the problem he's having.

Peter, please confirm that the bootinfo script is generated by running 
livecd.
