Hello Steffen, for being honest, i don't know what to odo with this parameter. Do i have to unpack the iso and edit some files? I'll put the original thread in the end.

The problem with booting is not dependent on CD-R. If the CD drive can read CD-RW, then the result is the same as with CD-R. I can boot correctly on: IBM server PC 325 IBM server PC 315 IBM notebook TP R30 I can NOT boot with DELL Latitude CPt notebooks. On DELL Latitude CPt C333GT I see for 0,5 sec this line ISOLINUX 3.07 2005-01-12 Copyright (+ something) then I see on the top only Press [Enter] to boot or press F1 for more options. If I press Enter once or more time I have no response. On DELL Latitude CPt S600GT I see for 0,5 sec this line ISOLINUX 3.07 2005-01-12 Copyright (+ something) then I see on the top only Press [Enter] to boot or press F1 for more options. If I press Enter for first time, I got one dot. If I press Enter for second time, the machine is rebooted. The same for F1. This is, what I can collect.
