The BIOS doesnt have many options (Sony Bios), had a look for Legacy
USB and there isnt anything there to select.

This is the thing that is so confusing, the launch kernel didnt work
for me but I didnt check why, it just froze at the same place, then i
used 1715 and it worked! But then after that every kernel after has
caused udev to freeze for some bizzar reason, it seems it hits the
floppy initialization. Confusing!

I could reinstall my system but I dont want to dud my FC5 T1 installation
