Problems with installing Linux Distributions on Armv-A Base AEM FVP Platforms

icegrave0391

Hi, I followed the official document [Install and boot a Linux distribution on Armv-A Base AEM FVP Platforms](https://gitlab.arm.com/arm-reference-solutions/arm-reference-solutions-docs/-/blob/master/docs/aemfvp-a/distro-boot.rst) to install a Debian distribution on AEM FVP.

However, the booting procedure failed at "Detecting hardware to find CD-ROM drivers" -> "No common CD-ROM drive was detected".

I'd like to ask what is the problem?

The following is my FVP command:

```
