Unfortunately, 2006.1 wont even boot with increasing amounts of hardware |
| 9 |
- and increasingly other distros LiveCD's do. My last one was a catch |
| 10 |
22 - earlier LiveCD's would boot, but no drivers for the network card, |
| 11 |
and therefore no easy way to install. (no floppy etc access as well :( |

2006.1 doesnt fully boot as it loses the cdrom partway through the boot |
| 13 |
process. |
