I created the ISO image from the same CD that's inserted into the
/dev/scd0 using below command:

  root:~# dd bs=$[1024 * 32] \
  > if=/dev/scd0 \
  > of=/root/windows-server-2003-standard-x86-64-sp2.iso

And I'm sure CD is bootable. (Not pirated, original.) OTOH, if we'd
assume the ISO image is corrupted for some unknown reason, why "-cdrom
/dev/scd0" didn't work?


Regards.
