In the first case (booting from hd:58), does the boot fail for start address 0x100100 but not for start address 0x13d3c0? In the second case (booting from CD), does it work in both cases? Or is the second case the same as the first case and it is failing for 0x100100 and working for 0x13d3c0? -- Marcel Moolenaar xcllnt@mac.com
