Dear @fantom & @brokenman,
In linuxrc there is "SLEEP=5" param.
I have Toshiba Portege slim laptop with DVD delay time to reading CD/DVD is about 10 sec.
This is good device but slow with any media.
May be it is done by manufacturer for saving power. May be - I do not know - but this device works in such way with any media.
I setup "SLEEP=25" and now Porteus boots from CD.
I do not know is this bug or not - just see booting stoppped, fixed and say to developers L)

Hello,
You don't to edit the linuxrc script.
You just need to use the 'delay=' cheatcode.
E.g : delay=25 will fix your hardware problem.
Cheers!

@Falcony
will raise 'SLEEP=' value to 10 seconds by default. as Hamza said: users can use 'delay=' cheatcode if they want more.
thanks for bug report.
