"Friday morning, back at work. That sucks. Anyway, the A1 is in a fine shape. But I got some troubles booting the Installer CD. "
I do not know if you know, but you should not be able to get some help from the A1G3DEV mailing list. It is my understanding that new owners will be added to the list. So, if you do get stuck, try the mailing list.
Good luck and waiting to hear more news from you.
