Just wanted to add that I've just been hit by this too, and I can't find
any bios settings to change. This with the 20040606 2.6 debian-installer
mini.iso (which works fine to install an hp DL145 except that you have to
fix the console-data package).
Anyone with clues on how I can get the system to boot? This is currently
what's keeping us from running debian-amd64 on our new cluster.
