You can from dos, in the cdrom root dir type 'inst_ide' and boot an atapi kernel that will use an atapi cdrom on the secondary controller (as master or slave). I used this to build a friends box. You will need to install the kernel sources in the intial install, since you still end up with the generic kernel in the end. Jamie I have my finger on the pulse of the planet.
