I also got a motherboard with an AWARD 6.00 BIOS which just doesn't boot the
CD (crosschecked boot priority). As Daniel specified, a new version of
ISOLINUX is available. I created a new ISO file with this new version, but
same effect.
It works on my other PC's with an AWARD BIOS v4.51 though.
Strange ...
