 |  I can confirm both the originally-reported problem (i386 cd boot fails, 
 |  amd64 cd boot succeeds) on my newly-built system with a Gigabyte 
 |  GA-H67-USB3-B3 motherboard, and the workaround:  if I switch the SATA 
 |  controller to IDE mode from AHCI in the BIOS, it boots OK under i386.

 Let's commit and pullup the fix then! It brings us closer to the release point!
