14 I played around a bit. My machine couldn't boot from CD with no emulation
15 and couldn't boot with floppy emulation. I downgraded my system BIOS a bit and
16 there are 2 changes now - SCSI controler has IRQ 11 not 15 anymore and the
17 fix for the VIA 686b south bridge came in a later BIOS version.

19 I will try out something maybe I find the problem exactly. However now my
20 machine can boot with isolinux 1.63 but not isolinux 1.62
