Yes, on an ASUS PRO31J F3JC.  The live disc did work, though every live
disc I've tried on any computer has always managed to tangle itself in a
knot, after a while.  I did my installation NOT from the live disc,
though.  I picked the rescue disc to boot from, and used an ISO file of
the DVD that I already had on an external hard drive.  I could have
booted from the DVD, as I had a burnt copy, too.  But, I've always found
that a slower way to do things.
