isolinux: loading spec packet failed, trying to wing it.

isolinux: failed to access CD-ROM device, boot failed.

Well, since the kernel can't be loaded, there should be something wrong with your CD. Did you try a boot disk?

my actual CD is fine (i installed slackware on another computer with it). My CDROM works properly as i installed RedHat with it. Maybe i will try a boot disk anyway.
