It (4.5-RC1 cdboot disk) boots fine on: Sony VAIO SR-27 (laptop) (installation fine too) ASUS P2L97 ASUS K7V (all IDE) Tyan Thunder K7 (all SCSI) IBM ThinkPad T23 I could not get it to boot on my ASUS K7M (AMIBIOS dated 11/01/99). This computer (all SCSI, AHA2940U2W) has two CD-drives, a Yamaha CD-writer and a Pioneer DVD. From either one, a 4.4-RELEASE CD boots. I tried all sorts of stuff like changing the boot order in the BIOS and setting the SCSI boot device. It recognizes that there's a bootable CD in the machine but won't boot from it. A BIOS update might change this. I've never been sure I could do this safely.
