ZMliveCD_1.22.2.1.iso is what I'm using

the iso you gave me with work with new hardware?

I had a DVR setup previously with a gay grub based dvr OS that was WAY too limited and wouldn't even allow you to bring up a console or boot into single user mode or anything.... it sucked. so the NIC died on my motherboard and rather than buy a new 200 dollar board to keep a crappy ROM OS that won'...
