It tries to read the DVD, and nothing appears on the black screen. Then the computer proceeds to other boot methods. I'm not sure: perhaps, it's not an RC4 vs RC2 problem, but the reason is that the RC2 is recorded onto a DVD+R whereas I have recorded the RC4 and RC3 images onto DVD-Rs. I shall test this. 163223 1 sem 2017-04-13 21:06:16 +0300 Images are builded with different tools nowaday. hopefully the issue is not exist now.
