Some isos not booting

[Nio Wiklund]

Maybe this is the caused by the bug that makes the Lubuntu Vivid i386
desktop installer fail in some computers (but not all). I have reported
it in the testing tracker more than once as

http://launchpad.net/bugs/1432843

failure in:
http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M2NVM_DVI/
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/dim4600/en/4600i/sm/specs.htm

successful boot in:
http://www.toshiba.se/laptops/satellite-pro/c850/satellite-pro-c850-19w/

The corresponding alternate installer works in all these computers.

Best regards
Nio
