( from http://www.debian.org/releases/2.1/i386/ch-rescue-boot.en.html ) argh - it doesn't work! adding the boot argument thingy didn't help. Could you please tell me how to get around this problem, or point me to where I can find online help for it? The boot halts after the message "Downloading sequencer instructions - please wait" is displayed. I installed the previous version of Debian (2.0?) with no problems, but my 2.1 disk will not boot - I've even tried a different 2940 card!
