Thanks - thats *very* useful to know! I notice that evryone who is telling
me it works is running amd64, not i386, so my next step will be to install
amd64 instead and see if that boots.

If I cant get it to work then, would you be able to tell me your BIOS
version and a few settings ? I realise that might not be possible if
the machine is running, obviously.

cheers,
