How sure are you of your burn process? I know for absolute sure that the amd64 Net Install iso burned by my P4 box with K3B's "Tools->CD->Burn CD Image" works because that's how Debian got on this machine. Can you burn with a different machine? Can you burn a CD that will boot other machines? -- Glenn English [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG ID: D0D7FF20 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
