Re: [gentoo-user] Bootproblem with 1.4rc2

[Andrew Gaffney]

First of all, if this machine is so old that it didn't support drives 
over 1GB, does it have support for booting from the CD-ROM? Also, does 
it have a 586 processor? I don't know if that CD is built specifically 
for the 586 or just optimized for it, but it never hurts to ask.

I've got a little boot-problem here: We have a old Server. After a bios-update 
it is able to handle disks greater 1GB and boot from cdrom. I want to use the 
same gentoo-grp-i568-1.4rc2 cd I used for the installation of my laptop, but 
it isn't booting. I just doesn't get to the amazing bootmanager-screen of 
gentoo... Apart from using another cd-drive has anyone an idea or suggestions 
or heard of similar occurencies?
