Btw., i've found BIOS rev 1.23 to be the last stable revision regarding El Torito (even though a number of El Torito features are missing that have supposed to be fixed in 1.25 or higher). So it wouldn't surprise me to see that they've broken more than the extended BIOS int 0x13 support. El Torito is already a large pile of sh*t, but the BIOS vendor imple- mentations of it seem to be even crappier. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
