How did you burn the CD using K3B? As a data project, or as a disk |
| 11 |
image? |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
A quick check is to pop the CD into a machine that works, mount the CD |
| 14 |
and see what's on it. If you see one file called <something>.iso, then |
| 15 |
you burned it wrong and need to burn another one as a full disk image. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
If that check is OK, then make sure that the .iso you downloaded is not |
| 18 |
corrupt by checking it's MD5 sum by following the instructions on the |
| 19 |
downlaod site. |

Next time you ask for help on a mailing list, it's a good idea to |
| 22 |
describe exactly what problem you are having. You didn't say, so we |
| 23 |
donlt know, and I just guessed at what is the most common problem. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
So, does the CD boot at all? What's on the screen? If it boots and tries |
| 26 |
to run, where does it stop and what error messages do you get when it |
| 27 |
does? |
