Using the alixbio7.zip (internal version02/11/2009-AMD-LX800-6A43AEM1C-00) actually solves the hang at boot after the "Probing EDD... ok" message with a stock Debian kernel. I was using Lenny installed from a desktop pc + CF/IDE adapter with a Voyage Linux kernel but couldn't boot on 2.6.38-voyage so i was stuck at 2.6.26 Now i'm in the process of upgrading to Debian Squeeze. Thanks a lot!
