Comments/Problems:

 

The system hung when I tried to boot the installation CD-rom. The prompt ”ISOLINUX 3.31 Debian-2007-02-14” appears, but then nothing happends.

I tried burning onto two different CD-rom brands but exactly the same error occured.

My suggestion did not really have anything to do with the initrd, but with 
the bootloader (isolinux). The actual symptoms (what messages are/are not 
shown) may vary a bit per system.
Because the problem was very early, the most likely problem was with the 
bootloader and I wanted to at least rule that out as the cause.

However, as you've worked around the issue and it seems we cannot expect 
any further info on the issue, I'm closing your report.
Good luck installing with the other motherboard.

Cheers,
FJP
