Just curious, I can't boot using GUID and the GUID EFI boot loader, I originally had a b0 error, so I made the partition active, rebooted with no b0 error, but instead it does nothing.
Does GUID not work or is it just my system?



AMD Opteron 165
DFI nForce4 Ultra-D
2gb G.Skill
nVidia 6800GS (Q/E, C/I in Tiger and Leo)
120gb SATA (Leo)
250GB SATA (XP)
250GB SATA (Files)
160GB IDE (Backup)
Buffalo Wireless NIC (Broadcom)

Encountered my first problem. Restarted my computer for the first time, and boot loader did not automatically show up as Zephyroth previously reported that it would. Instead, now it stay at the Boot from CD prompt, and cannot access the partition. Now what? Partition is not bootable. This is really upsetting. I thought Zephyroth and the beta team addressed these issues before this release was officially released. Whats up with this now? Hello? Please respond, thank you.

I tried to use the commands to make my partition bootable, but that does not work at all. My screen remains at Boot from CD. What am suppose to do now? Thanks.

About those with "Still waiting for root device" Please verify you installed the Drivers for your chipset, video, LAN, audio, via the "Customize" Button Left of the "Install" button. If you are still getting this error. List the Drivers you installed, what drive your installing to the configuration of this drive (master/slave and channel) Also list your motherboard, video, and LAN. If possible please provide any screen shots. Im hoping we can get this all worked out without needing a patch.


I would also like to know if anyone else is having problems with Nforce LAN freezing the whole os .. As I am. Also cant get Toast to run and QE/CI is working ;( ...

Are you using MBR or GUID? I had a similar problem with GUID, MBR on the other hand is booting, but now I get half way through and I get a black window telling me to restart the computer....
