However, I did just download 5.2.1-release-miniinst.iso, and it did boot. It appears different from the same thing d/l-ed a week ago, and there was one PR about the MD5s being incorrect, but that appeared to have been fixed before I started booting this darned Compaq. Anyway, looks as if I'm back to fighting with the 1850, and not the ISOs! Cheers, -sam
