Right, the shell doesn't start until the second stage installer. Actually,
if you get to that point on a CD install, then the CD *is* working...

So, looking at the code briefly, I suspect that kickstartfromCD
needs to iterate over the devices (and check for NULL.) Or not probe
the USB bus.  (in kudzu parlance, USB CDs are SCSI.)

Try the *completely untested* patch attached. It may need some fudging.
