Hello!

I noticed that on some computers the BIOS (?) fails to load any Linux if it is 
the only OS installed. This is because on some machiners a boot flag is 
required, and the live-cd-installer does not by default flag any partition 
bootable.

Fix:
parted set /dev/hda1 boot on
or
sfdisk -A /dev/hda 2
