Dear Maintainer,

I have two older computers with Intel D865GBFLK motherboards (~2003)
and Pentium 4 HT CPU's.  They both have the latest available BIOS
installed.  I would like to put Debian on them.


I have downloaded:

debian-8.7.1-i386-xfce-CD-1.iso


When I put the ISO on a CD-R, it boots correctly.


When I put the ISO on a USB flash drive and boot it:

isolinux.bin missing or corrupt


The same USB flash drive boots correctly in newer computers.


Memtest86+ 5.01 on a USB flash drive boots correctly in the older
computers.


My conclusion is that the ISO is not compatible with the BIOS in the
older computers.


David

Version: 3:6.03+dfsg1-1

Hi,

this problem was fixed in isolinux version 3:6.03+dfsg1-1.  As of now,
debian-cds are still affected, the progress for that is tracked
separately in the original Bug report:  https://bugs.debian.org/857597

I've cloned this bug to isolinux so fixed versions can be tracked.

Thanks
Lukas--- End Message ---
