It's not the machine. It's GRUB not being able to boot from ext4.
I'm reading this thread, but I actually don't understand. I installed Milestone2, as by default, on a ext4 partition, and the system was able to boot from it.
Why do you say that GRUB can not handle ext4?
that's the unpatched grub.
The only problem I had, and that's why I reinstalled with ext3, was that my opensuse 11.0 didn't want to start. It complained about some unknown options on the filesystem.
Which leads me to the question: Why is ext4 the default filesystem, if it still causes problems?
It does not in openSUSE ;). Since 11.1 grub handles ext4 thanks to a GSoC project that openSUSE did, so everything should be fine here.
