it's an INTEL Atom 330 with iA64

could it be the BlueRay Drive via USB2.0 ?

Unlikely. More likely you have the wrong image for your system.
Try the amd64 images instead.

Are you 100% sure that Intel Atom is an *Itanium* processor?
As far as I know it is a normal 64-bits Intel processor that requires an 
x86_64 Linux kernel (and thus the Debian amd64 architecture) and *not* an 
ia64 kernel (which is the Debian ia64 architecture).

They really are very different animals! Don't let the name amd64 confuse 
you. Did you actually read the link I provided?

If you are correct and it is an IA64 system, then I'm afraid I have no 
idea. And that would increase the chance that the problem is with the 
image itself as I have no idea how widely tested booting from CD is for 
IA64.

You may have more luck getting help diagnose the issue on the debian-ia64 
list as there should be more people familiar with the architecture there.
I doubt there are (m)any reading this list.

But please check that you really do have the correct image first!

If you do find a problem then please let us know on this list as we do of 
course want to provide working images.

Cheers,
FJP

HAAA HAAA

ia64 is Intel Itanium

AMD64 is for Intel 64Bit, too

is that right ?

sorry, it's my first time with 64Bit

:)

No, really. If you want to use 64-bit Linux on that processor then you
need amd64. AMD pioneered the x86_64 architecture work and Intel later
copied it.

IA64 == Itanium, Intel's _other_ 64-bit architecture.
