[3.9. I booted from my ATAPI CD-ROM, but the install program says no
CD-ROM is found. Where did it go?]

I think this can stay in as its essentially correct; it should probably
be rephrased:

"[...] CD-ROM/DVD drive. The ATAPI specification does not
allow for a CD-ROM/DVD drive to be connected as a slave device with no
master device on the same IDE channel. 
Reconfigure your system so that the CD-ROM/DVD is either the master
device on the IDE controller it is attached to, or make sure that it is
the slave on an IDE controller that also has a master device.
Note that this FAQ only refers to ATAPI CD-ROM/DVD drives, not to SATA
ones."

This could probably be phrased better, English is not my first
language.

Bye,
Marc
