Summary: 2.0 ISO won't boot

Initial Comment:
At first I thought it was because of another Grub 
installation on the hard drive, but after wiping the 
drive clean the problem persists.

The iso just boots to a grub> prompt with no 
instructions on how to proceed.  I'm trying different 
commands at the prompt, but to no avail.

One way to boot 2.0 ISO image is to use SMARTBOOTMANAGER
(sbminst.exe). Download from SourceForge Project.
Insert an empty disk(1.44MB) on the FD.
Run from command line the following :
sbminst.exe -t us -d 0
Boot from the FD with the CD that contains the Endian 2.0
iso loaded in the cd drive.

Hi All!

I'm just new to Endian and am looking at an alternative to 
SME Server.  I have downloaded the ISO and verified it, but 
it simply won't boot.  I'm trying to boot it into a P4 
1.5Ghz box.  Boots on another P4 2.4Ghz.  Any idea's?

Cheers,
David Kenyon

Posted in the forum and copied here:
I would have to say there is something going on with the 
EFW isolinux bootable files with this version on some 
PC's. I burned the ISO to CD at work and upgraded my lab 
firewall (Dell GX110) there without any problems. I 
brought home the same CD to upgrade the firewall here and 
it will not boot (Asus P2B PIII 350MHz). I also downloaded 
the ISO again and burned two more CD's that didn't work 
either. Like others I have booted the other endian FW cd's 
as well IPCop previously without any problems.  
 
In an attempt to get around the problem I pulled the known 
good CD drive from the EFW at work and put it in the ASUS 
P2B system and I still have the boot failure here at home.

Workaround:  Boot with 1.1rc6 and replace 1.1rc6 CD with 
2.0 CD once at boot prompt.

Same problem here, cannot install over the top of my rc8
machine. Have tried the 2.0 CD in my DELL notebook and it
did boot sucessfully (although I cancelled it before my hdd
was wiped), so nothing wrong with the CD.....not sure what
this could be?

Problem is confirmed, downloaded and burned twice, reburned 
at different speeds, finalized and non, problem still 
exists.  Tried two different computers, different CD and 
DVD drives, etc.  All hardware problems have been 
eliminated and MD5 checksum on both download check out.  
Burned with Nero 7, will try another burning program and 
respond.

I think the disc is just not booting for whatever reason.  
I just noticed the grub> prompt came up even when the
disc 
was not in the cd drive.  I'm able to boot several other 
distro cds, so it appears to be some thing with the iso.  
I've burned 2 copies from 2 separate downloads with the 
same result.  Please let me know if you find a problem and 
manage to correct it.  Thanks...
