The cd boot helper (Help me boot from CD) option is broken in 11.10.

Try entering BIOS and changing the boot order to enable booting from CD, or press the BIOS boot options key (e.g. on my dell it's F12) which allows a one time override, and tell it to boot from the CD.

Can you help with this problem?
