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. File Attachments ------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Wed 04/28/04 at 08:22 Name: grub-run Size: 698KB By: chjones Comparison of boots on identical disc on "good" and "bad" machines http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/download.php?item_id=8722&item_file_id=1248 For detailed info, follow this link: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=8722> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
