Summary:  GRUB El Torito does not work on broken BIOS

Original Submission:  This is a reminder bug report, filed after discussion on the 
mailing list:
http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-grub/2004-04/msg00152.html

Priority is low.  This is archived here for future discussion.

I have an older Packard Bell i586.  Slackware 9.1 installation CD, using ISOLINUX 
2.06, boots properly.  However, GRUB, using stage2_eltorito, does not.  See attached 
file for run comparison of CD on this machine and a newer machine.

See also the above mailing list URL for build instructions, mkisofs command, etc.
