Alphastation 200 vs CDROM

On the AlphaStation 200 4/233

Which 3d party SCSI CDROM drives can be used to both boot the Firmware
CD and the DU 4.0B (or better 4.0D) install CD. So far, I have one
drive that can boot the FW-CD but which causes a panic when trying
to boot either UNIX install CD and I have another drive that causes
a panic when trying to boot the FW-CD but which appears to be able
to boot and read the UNIX install CDs (although the install fails).

TIA
Charles Richmond
