Thanks, greatly appreciate all the testing.

As part of looking into this I went looking for another Gigabyte
motherboard and through the past 2 days was able to test the same set of
things with the same results.  So far I haven't been able to reproduce
this on anything but Gigabyte. This is such a bizarre problem I really needed someone else to confirm so thank you very much. Since there is a
workaround I don't think I'll hold the release for this problem but we
will need to mention this in the Errata (and possibly the announcement
itself).

I have a number of different test PCs available. 7.2-RC2 Live FS boots just fine on all. Disk 1 is not recognized as bootable on any of them. I can provide any specs that might help. They are all quite different. Mostly older units. Newest is probably about 5 years old.
