Hi I checked out plex from CVS a few minutes ago and tried to boot a debian rescue-disk in /dev/fd0u1440, plex crashed. Then I tried with another debian-rescuedisk that I had made an image of. Exactly the same thing. They both use syslinux, and syslinux comes up and displays a message and I press enter to continue booting. Then plex panics. here's the output from plex: Processing command-line options Opening VM (/dev/plex86) Processing config file ../conf/gandalf...
