This is the only message I've seen in this thread.  I'm a little
confused, because you've seen the other thread about the Inspiron
5100, and I've already explained the problem to you there.

The problem we have here is that the system is not mapping the BIOS
correctly.  I have built a server (for 4.3.0) which works around the
problem by including the complete code of the BIOS.  If you want a
copy, tell me and I'll put it somewhere.  See also
http://www.lemis.com/grog/diary-jul2003.html#25 for more details.
