           Summary: plain blue screen when booting the live cd
           Product: ReactOS
           Version: 0.3.1
          Platform: x86 Hardware
        OS/Version: ReactOS
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Setup
        AssignedTo: ros-bugs at reactos.org
        ReportedBy: benpicco at compuserve.de

When I try booting the cd on an Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 board (might be true for
all other boards with the Intel 965 chipset) from an IDE-connected DVD drive, I
only get a plain blue screen - no error code, nothing. The problem might be
this new Intel Chip, that afaik does not offer an IDE channel any longer, so
this is solved with an external chip. The problem of non booting live cds was
true for old linux ones, too (e.g. knoppix, Ubuntu), but the latest version
support this chip. So maybe you can just port the fixes made by the knoppix
project, I hope ReactOS gets more and more usefull, I like the project very
much, but could not yet try the latest version (on my old pc, where 0.3 worked
fine, I only get 'invalid signal' now (GeForce 6200), but that´s another bug ;)
)
