I did some test on another machine, which has almost the same hardware configuration (only difference is 2GiB more memory), and it appears that the unofficial image: 1. works when burnt to CD (newly burnt) 2. does not work when dd to USB stick (tried two times) I didn't try to use my old CD, as the new one works. -- Regards, Aron Xu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
