Here's what I've tried/found. I did another burn at a slower speed as you suggested. Prior to this I confirmed that the MD5Sum matched the one listed on the download site. The burn finished without error. Booting from the burnt CD failed in an identical manner as before. I also tried the same disk on an Indy, which also failed in an identical manner. On an Indigo2 it also failed, however since video wasn't working, I couldn't see the error. I believe it would have been the same. I also tried multiple CD-Rom drives (4 in total). This didn't have a noticable effect. Of interest is that the RC5 disk does boot perfectly, however since the ethernet driver in the RC5 build was messed up, I can't do anything usefull with it! Can anyone help? I would really like to get these machines functional! Thanks in advance. Mike Martin On 1/23/07, Kumba wrote: > Mike Martin wrote: > > Thanks for your help. I will try another burn.
