More accurately, I first tried Debian 2.2 CD. The Win98 machine didboot the Debian installer and the USB keyboard worked fine with it. Idid not try any real installation of Debian on the machine.

As far as I know, a PC 2001 legacy-free machine will fail to boot Debian2.2 CD. I'm also searching for testers who can test woody boot floppieson legacy-free systems around here.

Do things work fine with boot-floppies on that system at least?
