OK, so that does for RedHat rescue, but not arbitrary bootable CDS.
I guess I'm stuck with either cabling the onboard IDE & power to a PCI slot at the back (I'm not popping the hood to boot - my rack's got no goosenecks!) and using an IDE CDROM, or simply doing the same with SCSI (and the internal/external adaptors are easier to find and the power comes with the external caddy). Now off to check that I can boot from SCSI CD-ROM on the onboard...
