Hallo, H. Peter,

Du meintest am 29.06.10:

New messages, other problems:

Good news first: the Thinkpad T23 still boots as wanted.
After a lot of lines beginning with "isolinux" it shows my marvellous  
boot menu.

Thinkpad T22:

Many "isolinux: ... " lines, ending:

isolinux: Found something at drive = A0
isolinux: Found something at drive = 9F
Isolinux: Looks reasonable, continuing...
 Copyright ...
EDD: Error reading sector 16
ERROR: No configuration file found

Compaq 686T3:

ISOLINUX 4.01 4.00-6-gf17aca4 ETCDisolinux: Disk error 01, AX=4266, drive 00
(one long line)
Boot failed: press a key to retry

-----------------------------

Looks like a serial adventure tomorrow ...



Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
