Why can't it auto-load in auotexec.bat.... - China DOS Union Forum

I want it, when booting from the boot disk, to let me choose to load a program from the CD (boot from CD), so I set it in autoexec.bat,
but it doesn't work. When it switches to %CDROM%, it says it can't find the drive,
but after entering, that is, after the A:\> prompt appears, if I type it manually it works.
I set up a virtual drive; if I switch to the virtual drive first and then to %CDROM%, that also works, but it can't automatically switch directly to %CDROM%. Can anyone tell me what to do to make it work? Many thanks
