Probably.
Right now the bios seems to pick the first cdrom drive that it finds (in
order of cdrom-a, cdrom-b, ..). This is done in the bios, so it is a little
bit harder to change. (Hopefully fixing this would also make it trivial to
be able to tell the bios to boot from hdb/hdc/hdd instead of only supporting
hda).
