Can you boot into the Alix bios and look for a setting for something called
MFGPT. Change that setting and try again. I know that this setting exists
on a 2C3 and does affect booting of Astlinux trunk versions, but don't know
about 2D3.
Also, Darrick is promising Astlinux 0.7 "real soon now". It might be
worthwhile waiting for this as there have been many changes.
As you must use VGA display then you should probably stick with the geni586
version.... unless you want to build your own from source, in which case you
could customize the Alix version to point console to VGA instead of Serial
port, or just use the Alix version with a Serial-attached console.
