If the 'cdrom=' option is specified in the definition file but media is not 
found in the CD drive then main() in vl.c exits and the guest appears to hang.  
This patch modifies vl.c slightly to check for the presents of media.  If the 
cdrom cannot be opened then the cd entry is removed from hd_filename[] and 
bs_table[] allowing the guest to continue initializing. If the guest requires 
the CD media then the guest should report, gracefully or otherwise, that it's 
missing.

I would like to see this patch applied to 3.0.2-testing as well.

Thanks,
Ross
