Boots correctly on:

Intel D865GBFLK motherboard with Pentium 4 2.8E GHz processor

Intel D945GTP motherboard with Pentium D 945 processor

Intel D945GNT motherboard with Pentium D 945 processor

Intel DQ67SWT motherboard with Core i7-2600S processor

Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop with Core 2 T7400 processor


Thanks everyone for following through.  This will restore Debian (and 
derivatives) as a viable option for many millions of older computers.  :-)
