I ran across http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Features/UEFI the
other day, which says that a number of BIOSes fail to handle multiple El
Torito boot images correctly. You seem to be taking a somewhat
different approach; does it avoid this problem? I don't know how well
BIOSes handle MBR partition tables on CD-ROMs.
