Unfortunately there's no answer for my problem, but what i've figured out is
that none the bios versions from 1.8 upto 2.6 doesn't boot. What's more that
DVD drive looks like is not tested if it's a boot one. It tests floppy and
LAN, but can hear the CD running. Any ideas?
My boot sequence is floppy -> cd -> lan -> hdd.
