    I am using Acronis TI 9.1 workstation, and I am having problems
    in the following scenario:

    I am booting from the recovery CD, the loader message appears,
    and I get the first GUI screen. I select the Full version of the
    program, and, after some time the message
    "unable to load initial ram disk" appears, followed by kernel
    panics etc.

    I have tested this CD on other computers (different models), and I know it to be
    good and functional. I also tried the CD on a couple of computers that were the
    same model and configuration with the one in question, and the problem
    appeared every time.

    It does not seem that the problem has to do with the CD itself, but rather
    some incompatibility of the linux OS with the particular hardware. The
    machine in question is a HP XW6000 workstation, with two processors, and an
    Adapatec SCSI controller (on board).

    FYI, the "safe" version of the program boots properly, but of course there
    is not much I can do with it, since it does not have network support, and I
    cannot download the image.

    Is there anything I can do about this problem?
