Hmm. While I was at Red Hat last year, I noticed that the TP 600 (which they 
had a bunch of) wouldn't boot a FreeBSD CD-ROM (3.4, IIRC), although they 
/would/ boot the RH 6.[12] CDs.

Wouldn't swear to it, but I think the IBM IntelliStations they had also 
displayed similar symptoms. Didn't bother me too much at the time, because my 
laptop of the time wouldn't boot from /any/ CD, regardless.. :)

Cheers,

AS
