I didn't change boot order, and there wasn't a CD in the computers
prior to this, so I shouldn't expect it to be listed as a boot device
in the BIOS, but that is a good idea and I'll look.
(However, if that was the problem, I would expect it to either pass
the CD, and boot off the HD, or to have the problem every time,
instead of sometimes booting, and sometimes not.)
