[syslinux] Isolinux and LSI 53c1010-33

Hello List,
I have a problem with an Onborad scsci, that won't boot a isolinux-cd:

anyone got a clue?



Mainboard is ASUS-CUV4X-DLS with onboard LSI 35c1010-33 Controller.
Board-Bios is Award Medaillion 6.0 and
Controller Bios is Symbios SDMS v4.0 (4.18.02)
The CDRW device to boot from is a
Yamaha CRW2100S Rev1.0H
 I tried Isolinux 1.63 and 1.66 with similar "success":
here's what the debug version says:

--snip--
ISOLINUX: starting up, DL=F0
ISOLINUX: Loaded spec packet OK, drive=F0
ISOLINUX: Sectorsize appears to be 0800
ISOLINUX: Loading main Image from LBA 00029B70
ISOLINUX: Sectors to load=0004
ISOLINUX: Disk error, drive F0

Boot failed, press any key to retry
--snap--

I guess that Sectorsize is shown in hex, other than that there is something 
awfully wrong?!?

The same CD boots on two other Systems with different Adaptec controllers 
just fine.
What to do now?


TIA, Tim
