RHL 9A won't boot

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Whatever I tried, booting the RHL 9A CD 1 from the Red Hat Magazin gives
always this error message:
isolinux: Disk error 01, AX = 4321,9F
Any idea what this might mean? I also tried to boot bootdisk.img from
floppy, there I get "boot failed" without additional information (but
maybe the floppy is bad).

Interestingly, Win2k wouldn't boot as well, while RHL 7.1 (the latest
other I have available, I'm not at home now) installed just fine. So, is
it that the BIOS won't boot a bootimage above 1440 kB? It's a rather old
system, AMD K6/2 350 MHz on an AOpen AX59PRO board (with VIA chips,
ugh), but the CD-ROM is newer (acer 24x/10x/40x CD-R/RW burner).

Is there any documentation about such error messages and what they mean?
I did a search, but found nothing useful.

Best regards,
Martin Stricker
