[WBEL-users] x86_64 port bootable?

I have an x86_64 system that I'm trying to install WBEL on; it is an 
Athlon 64 2800+ on an ECS 755-A2 motherboard.  The thing is, it refuses 
to boot from the disc I burned from the 
liberation-respin1-binary-x86_64-1.iso 
<ftp://ftp.jach.hawaii.edu/pub/linux/whitebox/3.0/en/iso/x86_64/liberation-respin1-binary-x86_64-1.iso> 
image.  I verified the md5sums when I downloaded the images, and burned 
two copies of the disc to make sure that I didn't have a bad burn. 

The thing is, it boots fine from about any other linux install CD I 
have; both the x86_64 ports of Fedora and Gentoo will boot, and the i386 
WBEL disc boots too. 

Anybody have any ideas?
