Though I get further with the boot process, it finally fails, yet FC1,
FC2, FC3, RH7 and RH8 all install fine. I have tried all of the
wor-arounds suggested in bugzilla and on this forum. Since I can live
without FC4, my hope is that the problem will be addressed.

Boot failed: press a key to retry...
This happens with a CD1 that burned correctly and has been used to
install on two other machines. It also happens with a CD burned with
boot.iso from the images/ directory on the same drive I'm booting
from. Same result booting with "linux nodma".
The machine is an Athlon T-Bird on an ASUS A7V motherboard. The IDE
controller (hard disk) is a Promise Ultra-100. The SCSI controller
(CD-ROM and <blush> SyJet drive) is a BusLogic BT-958.
Suggestions?
TIA.
