It's a SuperMicro server with a P4 processor (2.8GHz) and 2 (two) 3ware RAID controllers. Escalade 9500S-8 and Escalade 8006-2LP. When _any_ of these two is taken out, CD boot works normally, the problem only arises when both are present in the server. When booting from the hard drive (either after the system is installed or booting a previous installation) or from floppies it works normally. This is the transcript of the message (I had to type this so I hope there are no typos): Start: ***************************************************** Boot from CD : CD Loader 1.01 Building the boot loader arguments Looking up /BOOT/LOADER...
