That might be a problem of my cd-drive, but I wonder why I was able too boot busnisscard sized iso and beta 3. I installed via wireless lan, but needed to switch to shell, and set the essid manually, since my router hides it. After reboot network didn't work anymore, I needed to set wep-key and essid manually. Las question: I booted with the option "vga=791", since I like to use the whole display of my notebook. However: After the reboot this kernel-parameter got lost. Would it be possible to check, if the user specified a kernel parameter and add them to the bootloader?
