I just got a set of debian beta1 cd's from Johnie Ingram, here are the
bootability-results so far (with what I've had to test them on):
#1 AOpen AP5TX P233MMX, Award BIOS v4.51PG, Toshiba 24x ATAPI CDROM
- Does not boot.
(My Debian machine, damn. The only one I wanted it to boot on.)
#2 AOpen AP5VM P233MMX, AMI BIOS v2.60 - Boots fine. Creative 16x ATAPI CDROM
- Boots fine.
#3 ASUS LX97 Pentium II 233, Award BIOS v4.51PG, Toshiba 32x ATAPI CDROM
- Boots fine.
Just my $0.02. Gonna try to fiddle with my machine and get it to boot off it.
