Syslinux is the more robust of the two and was just asking for a test
to make sure it does work.

That the beta-1 isolinux does not work is strange and might need some
debugging and auditing the chnages between woody and beta-1 isolinux
sources.

I don't believe its the cdrom. Would be real strange if the cd
contents would affect cdrom capabilities. The problem is the
respective bios of the system.
