[1/1] [gfxboot] align buffer used to read data from disk to a 512 byte boundary
The COM API provides a function to read from disk (int 22h, AX=07h)
which needs a destination buffer aligned on a 512 byte boundary. gfxboot
uses this function but doesn't ensure its data buffer is properly
aligned. This leads to failures on a few machines (HP Pavillion dv5):
gfxboot:
isolinux: Disk error 09, AX = 424F, drive FE
https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=48814 has a bit more details.
This patch just makes sure the buffer used to read from disk is properly
aligned, this fixes the boot failures on the aforementioned machines.

Recommendation for a Linux alternative to Centos - ATH9K disaster

His super-duper new laptop arrived. Acer, AMD 4 core, fast etc. but not
as nice looking as my impressive HP DV5. The wireless refused to
connect.
After 8 hours on Saturday I could sometimes see hubs in the
neighbourhood but could not connect to my own hub using WPA2.
iwlist wlan0 scan
produced technical details of local hubs - but still could not connect.
NetworkManager sometimes froze.
Spent many hour...

Oblivion cannot find the DVD at launch
Hi to all,
I have installed Oblivion on my PCLINUXOS 2010 KDE box (on a HP DV5 laptop with Intel Dual Core T3200 CPU, 4GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce 9200 M GS with 512 MB dedicated RAM) and patched it to the latest version. However, whenever I launch Oblivion.exe and select "Play", I get an error stating that Oblivion cannot find any CD or DVD.
I don't know why.
