Ah yes, I remember that thread on the mailing list. Fixed a long time ago in SVN.

Take a look at isolinux.cfg on your acid install disk with an iso reader such as isomaster(linux). Timeout should be set
to 0:

default linux
prompt 1
timeout 0
display boot.msg
F1 boot.msg
label linux
  kernel vmlinuz
  append initrd=initrd.img ks=cdrom

If not, download a fresh CD image from http://dl.allstarlink.org/installcd and take a look again.
