At startup, I press F2, and have a menu to selct the boot device.
I type C for CDROM, the CD starts reading and the machine displays a simple

and stops here
Is it related to the eltorito thing mentioned at http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/debian-netinst/ieure/faq.html ?
I don't have a floppy device to boot from, nor usb key, so I am stuck
