A couple of things I can think of: 1) make sure that you can read (and checksum) the '64 CD on your running box (bad burn?). Even if it's only a 32bit box, it should be able to read the CD (but not boot from it). 2) when you boot knoppix, send us /proc/cpuinfo... I'm kinda left wondering if you have a box that doesn't properly run X86-64. Mistakes do happen. 3) try burning another 64-bit CD -- like the ubuntu one. See if that works.
Yeah, these are obvious thing, but I don't see that you've done them. On 12/15/06, Tom Epperly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Package: installation-reports Version: 2.24 Severity: normal I burnt the CD on 12/13 and tried to boot from it this morning on a system I just assembled last night. The system would not boot from the CD. There were no signs that the boot process even began. It did spin the CD for a while as if it was looking for a bootable device. I tried booting the same machine from a generic x86 Knoppix CD, and it booted just fine. After successfully booting the Knoppix CD, I tried booting from the Debian boot CD again -- still no luck.
