WTF!

"Now for the fun part! I powered down the laptop and swapped the CD-ROM
drive into the modular bay, with the Red Hat install disk still in the
drive. Powering back up, I held down the F2 key and entered the BIOS
Setup program. I configured the BIOS to boot from the CD-ROM, saved the
configuration, and proceeded with the boot."

I went through the bios on several occasions; I know that wasn't an
available option. Please tell me you did something else.
