cd.diff works on this specific PC (Asus A8N, Phonix-Award BIOS), CD 
appears as hd31.

BTW: grub_biosdisk_iterate should IMO always expose the boot_drive (see 
my latest patch).
With current CVS and cd.diff, the boot_drive would not be visible in 
'ls' if e.g 0x80=HDD, 0x82=boot CD (as seen on some old Laptop).
