I just took delivery yesterday of both a HP Proliant 1450 G3 and a generic 1U server based on a Tyan Tomcat i845GV S3098 MB. In both cases, once the USB CD-ROM started loading either 6.1 or 6.2, I get a BTX halt: -=3D- from CD : CD Loader 1.2 Building the boot loader arguments Looking up /BOOT/LOADER... Found Relocating the loader and the BTX Starting the BTX loader BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01 Consoles: internal video/keyboard int=3D0000000d err=3D00000000 efl=3D00030206 eip=3D000037d0 eax=3D00008001 ebx=3D00000000 ecx=3Da3900001 edx=3D0000009f esi=3D00000b32 edi=3D00000000 ebp=3D00000000 esp=3D000003d2 cs=3Df000 ds=3D3eca es=3D3eac fs=3D0000 gs=3D0000 ss=3D97fc cs:eip=3D2e 0f 01 16 f8 38 0f 20-c0 0c 01 0f 22 c0 b8 30 00 8e c0 0f 20 c0 24 fe-0f 22 c0 eb 00 66 58 c3 ss:esp=3D01 80 00 00 db 36 00 00-00 00 32 0b 00 00 00 00 00 00 f8 03 00 00 00 00-00 00 9f 00 00 00 01 00 BTX halted -=3D- Opening up the cases and plugging in a EIDE CD-ROM, the installer CD's work just fine. So it looks like perhaps there is some new BIOS instruction set that's causing the BTX loader some pain with a USB device= =2E Anyone encounter similar issues recently?
