iso boot failure

Both the CD and DVD (disk 1) iso (debian linux 6.0.5) images fail to
boot, off their respective media.

Asus M 3A32 mother board
AMD Phenom X4 9850 64 bit
8 GB RAM
250 GB hard drive (previously running lenny).

During the upgrade to squeeze the disks failed to boot, and now I have
no access to the system at all.

Other boot media work OK (Win 7, Knoppix) from the CD/DVD drive.

This is NOT a BIOS issue.

I appears the Phenom X4, on my mother board got left out of the support
list.

I had lenny running previously on the above hardware.

Anybody have any ideas?

I presume you read the release notes? In particular the section about
"Migration of disk drivers from IDS to PATA subsystem"?


Other boot media work OK (Win 7, Knoppix) from the CD/DVD drive.

This is NOT a BIOS issue.



You've A) downloaded the amd64 and NOT the ia64 CD/DVD and B) checked
the MD5SUM of the downloaded image?
