Erkki; every iso image that will be uploaded into the FRS area has been loaded before with qemu to run some basic tests. The QEMU acceleration layer is not activated, but I don't think this makes a difference, and the qemu version is 0.8.2. Booting with older Bios versions like your netvista pc can always be an adventure and needs often some other syslinux versions - though there is no syslinux version for all Bioses AFAIK. kp ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
