I've got the same board, and I'm unable to boot completely. From a PATA HD I can't see neither the boot logo nor the debug output. I tried to play a bit with BIOS and safe boot options with no luck. Of course the same disk boots on other systems, so it's not an image/HD problem. From the Live CD (also PATA) I can see the logo but it stops at last icon. I didn't try debug output yet on this. I will try more this evening. I have a serial cable and a second machine, so I can try serial debug output as well. Regards, Gabriele - www.biffuz.it
