    For some reason my BIOS won't boot off the CD-ROM and I can't get into
    the BIOS setup screen no matter what I do to fix it.

    So, is there a way to make GRUB boot a FC2 CD-ROM so I can do the upgrade?

    The CD-ROM is installed as the primary device on the second IDE channel
    (hdc).
